Mode of Action

Pregnancy Category Note

Pregnancy Based on animal data showing adverse renal effects drug is not recommended during second and third trimesters of pregnancy Limited data in pregnant women are not sufficient to determine drug-associated risk for major birth defects or miscarriage; there are risks to mother and fetus associated with poorly controlled diabetes in pregnancy In animal studies, adverse renal pelvic and tubule dilatations, that were not fully reversible, were observed in rats when administered during a period of renal development corresponding to late second and third trimesters of human pregnancy, at all doses tested Clinical considerations Poorly controlled diabetes in pregnancy increases maternal risk for diabetic ketoacidosis, preeclampsia, spontaneous abortions, preterm delivery, still birth and delivery complications; poorly controlled diabetes increases fetal risk for major birth defects, stillbirth, and macrosomia related morbidity Lactation There is no information regarding presence of dapagliflozin in human milk, effects on breastfed infant, or on milk production; drug is present in milk of lactating rats; however, due to species-specific differences in lactation physiology, clinical relevance of these data are not clear Since human kidney maturation occurs in utero and during first 2 years of life when lactational exposure may occur, there may be risk to developing human kidney; because of potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed infants, advise women that therapy is not recommended while breastfeeding

Interaction

Hypoglycemia may occur w/ concomitant use w/ insulin & insulin secretagogues eg sulfonylureas. Decrease in Cmax & AUC w/ rifampin. Increase in Cmax & AUC w/ mefenamic acid. Increased thiazide & loop diuretic effects; may increase risk of dehydration & hypotension. Pioglitazone.
