If you take diabetes medicines but do not eat on time, your blood sugar may become too low. Low blood sugar levels might also happen if you do not eat well. Symptoms of low blood sugar are weakness, dizziness, hunger, sweating, trembling, blurred vision, unsteady walk or fast heartbeat. If you experience any of these low blood sugar symptoms, do the following immediately: Step 1: Take 15 grams of sugar. The following are examples of 15 grams of sugar. 3 glucose tablets or Half a glass of fruit juice or 2 4 teaspoons of sugar, honey or syrup Do note that if you are taking acarbose tablets, only glucose tablets will help reduce the symptoms of low blood sugar. Step 2: You should feel better in about 15 minutes. If you have a home blood sugar meter, you should check your blood sugar level. Step 3: If your blood sugar level is less than 4mmol/L or you still have symptoms of low blood sugar, you should repeat step 1 from above. If your symptoms still do not get better, see a doctor or go to the hospital immediately. Stomach discomfort / Bloating or gas / Diarrhoea These symptoms may happen but should get better over time. Check with your doctor if any of these symptoms are serious or do not go away. Nausea / vomiting or Loss of appetite You may experience these symptoms if you are taking metformin.

This is more likely to happen in the morning or when you first get out of bed. Getting up slowly may help but if the problem continues, check with your doctor. Dehydration (not having enough water in the body) You might experience dehydration if you are taking dapagliflozin as it removes the excess sugar in your body through your urine.

Symptoms include white or yellowish vaginal discharge, bad smelling discharge or itch at the vaginal area. Males taking dapagliflozin have a higher chance of getting yeast infection of the penis. Symptoms include rash, redness, itch or swelling of the penis, bad smelling discharge from the penis or pain around the penis.
