In Type 2 diabetes an excess of calories, in the form of glucose, can lead to fat deposition around the internal organs,such as the liver and pancreas, and in muscle tissue. A key objective during diabetic weight loss is to maximize the loss of body fat while minimizing the loss of lean tissue such as muscle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is some variability regarding the amount of SGLT2 inhibitor-induced weight loss seen in controlled clinical studies. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thelancet.com\/journals\/landia\/article\/PIIS2213-8587(14)70120-2\/fulltext\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clinical trial data<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> published in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Lancet<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> shows a 5.5- to 8.82-pound weight loss in participants over the course of a 104-week trial.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cGenerally, in practice we see four to eight pounds of weight loss on average,\u201d says <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/diabetesdoctor.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stephanie Redmond<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Pharm.D., a pharmacist who specializes in diabetes care and management. \u201cSome patients would be \u2018hyper-responders\u2019\u2019 and see much more.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While four to eight pounds may not seem like a substantial amount of weight loss, it is important to note that according to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/diabetesjournals.org\/care\/article\/29\/9\/2102\/24174\/Effect-of-Weight-Loss-With-Lifestyle-Intervention\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">American Diabetes Association\u2019s (ADA) Diabetes Prevention Program<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, every two pounds of weight loss is associated with a significant reduction in the likelihood of progressing to Type 2 diabetes. For people with Type 2 diabetes, even modest reductions in weight have significant health benefits beyond improving blood glucose levels.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is also important to note that the weight loss variability seen among patients in clinical studies cannot be fully explained by the effects of Jardiance alone. Other factors that contribute to weight loss include genetic predisposition, access to and types of food eaten, and exercise regimen and frequency.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-does-jardiance-work-for-weight-loss\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How does Jardiance work for weight loss?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jardiance is an oral antihyperglycemic medication with a unique mechanism of action that can lower blood glucose levels independent of the effects of insulin. Sodium-glucose cotransporters are responsible for glucose reabsorption in the kidney. SGLT2 inhibitors, such as Jardiance, block these transporters, so excess glucose is not reabsorbed into the bloodstream and is instead excreted out in the urine. This mechanism of action is responsible for <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">unique side effects of Jardiance<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which may include urinary tract infections, female genital yeast infections, and necrotizing fasciitis, a rare but serious bacterial infection that causes damage to the tissue under the skin in the area between the anus and genitals (the perineum) in males and females.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jardiance is not an appetite suppressant, i.e., it does not make one feel less hungry. Instead, SGLT2 inhibitors <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/obr.12841\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">promote an average of 75 grams<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of glucose excretion in the urine per day, which is about 300 excess calories. A loss of 300 calories per day would result in a little over one pound of weight loss per week.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"who-can-take-jardiance-for-weight-loss\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who can take Jardiance for weight loss?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jardiance has been FDA-approved as a supplement to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">diet<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">exercise<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for adults with Type 2 diabetes. Jardiance is available <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in two strengths<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: 10 mg and 25 mg tablets. The starting dosage is 10 mg taken once daily in the morning. The dosage of Jardiance may be increased to 25 mg taken once per day for additional blood glucose control in individuals who have been tolerating the medication well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is no approved Jardiance dosage for weight loss. The change from 10 mg to 25 mg should not be made to accelerate or promote weight loss but only to safely lower high blood sugar in certain individuals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are no clinical studies describing the off-label use of Jardiance for weight loss. However, with obesity affecting up to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">500 million people worldwide<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and only <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">seven drugs approved by the FDA<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to treat obesity, healthcare providers are turning to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5473499\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">off-label drug use<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for their patients. Until more medications are approved for long-term use, healthcare providers will likely continue to prescribe any medications that may be helpful for their patients in need.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While a modest weight loss may be statistically significant to improve health status, it is usually far from satisfactory to meet the overall needs and desires of most individuals who need or want to lose weight.
