Medicine overview
Indications of Glicana 100 mg
Canagliflozin is indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Theropeutic Class
Sodium-glucose Cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) Inhibitors
Pharmacology
Canagliflozin is an inhibitor of subtype-2 sodium-glucose co-transport protein (SGLT2), which is responsible for at least 90% of the glucose reabsorption in the kidney. Blocking this transporter reduces the reabsorption of glucose from renal tubules, leading to more excretion of glucose in urine.
Dosage & Administration of Glicana 100 mg
The recommended starting dose is 100 mg once daily, taken before the first meal of the day. Dose can be increased to 300 mg once daily who have CrCl>60 ml/min or who requires additional glycemic control. No dose adjustment is required for mild renal impairment. For moderate renal impairment (CrCl 45-60 ml/min) Canagliflozin 100 mg is recommended.
