Starting diabetes medication can feel confusing, right? So many names, dosages, and potential side effects! Don't worry, I'm here to help.
In this video, I'm breaking down some of the most common diabetes medications, how they work, and what side effects to watch out for. Let's empower you with knowledge!
First up, Metformin. This is often the first medication prescribed for type 2 diabetes. It helps your body use insulin more effectively and may reduce the amount of sugar your liver produces. Possible side effects? Upset stomach, diarrhea...but those usually subside.
Next, we have Sulfonylureas, like Glipizide. These stimulate your pancreas to release more insulin. Watch out for low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), weight gain, and potential skin reactions.
DPP-4 inhibitors, like Sitagliptin, help your body increase insulin release and decrease sugar production. Generally well-tolerated, but some may experience headaches or upper respiratory infections.
It's important to remember that everyone reacts differently to medication. Always discuss any concerns with your doctor or pharmacist. They can help you find the right medication and dosage for your specific needs.
