"Forxiga®, dapagliflozin 10 mg film-coated tablet.~For further information please refer to:~https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/product-information/forxiga-epar-product-information\_en.pdf.~Common side effects include hypoglycemia, hypotension, elevated hematocrite, dyslipidemia, back pain, dizziness, skin rash, urinary tract infection, vulvovaginitis and dehydration. Very rare incidents of ketoacidosis have been observed. Side effects have only been observed after use in longer periods and not in single-dose usage, as planned in the present study. A dose of 50 mg has been chosen to achieve optimal efficacy. Once-per-day doses of dapagliflozin for 12 weeks of 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, 20 mg and 50 mg have been demonstrated to be relatively safe across the mentioned doses (20) and no apparent risk is expected from instituting two single-doses of 50 mg dapagliflozin."
