User Reviews for Onglyza oral

Just found out after three months on Onglyza along with Metformin that my BS is through the roof. It is my working at all for me. In 20 years, I have never had this problem. A1c IS 11.2 !!! It was 7.7 3 mos ago and my former medication was changed to Onglyza as it was the latest, newest, best thing. NOT SO. I have gum problems, and a skin problem, I now think might be related. I am scared as to what might have happened internally.

I HAVE TYPE 2 MY DOCTOR PUT ME ON THIS MEDICINE. WITH IS ONGLYZA 2.5 MG. IS IT HARMFUL TO TAKE WITH INSULIN.MY BLOOD SUGAR IS OK.

This drug seems to elude everyone in Walgreens Pharmacy, they can't get it or you need prior authorization to even qualify. Oh well!!!!!

i been having pain in my legs and feet while i can't stand for a long time. I decided to do research on this pill.My pain comes on a regular basic now i mention it to my doctor she said its not coming from onglyza but what i read on the side effects so far it does.

I really wanted this to work for me! But, started with a mild headache. I kept taking hoping it would eventually go away. But, headaches got worse until Ibuprofen stopped working and I couldn't get out of bed until the afternoons. Then stomach pains and indigestion. My blood sugars stayed the same the first few days, then went up 50 points the rest of the time. The last couple days of using this med, I started having dizzy spells. That's when I quit taking it. I'm sticking with low-carb. Better results without the side effects!Read More Read Less

blood sugar and feeling well ovrall.

I just learned that the diabetes drug Onglyza might be causing Pancreitic cancer. I take 5mgs aday. Iam calling my doctor next week for an appointment to discus this.

No problems, just a huge fight between mt Doctor, and Insurance over cost of this medicatin. Very expensive.

No side effects and bs is stable now

Have been on this medication for almost one month. Have not noticed any lowering of my blood sugars, but I have noticed an increase in my heart rate...it is normally around 55-60 bpm...it is between 90 and 110 now

Have taken 8 days. Extreme fatigue. Bloated painful abdomen, swollen and hard. The trots and lots of gas. Have a fever and I feel like I have the flu. Sugars are rising. This stuff is poison!

After a few months I lost weight! And my BS has dropped. I had difficulty taking Victoza and Glucophage so I am taking onglyza alone.

I have headaches in the morning blood sugar drops suddenly and it's too hard to bring it up again. I itch and have stomach problems. Stopped taking this med and starting to feel better. I have better control with insulin

This medication has worked great forme!

Isn't all that effective in lowering my blood sugar.

I was on this med as well as amaryl. It did not work for me. My legs hurt to the point where I had trouble walking. My vision became blurry. My blood sugar actually went up! I keep my carbs to about 150 a day. even tho I'm not taking it any longer, my legs still cramp and twitch.

Been taking Onglyza about 3 months. Has lowered my reading to acceptable levels. But I have to count carbs. And watch everything I eat. So I don't eat too much or the wrong things. Haven't noticed any side effects. Except for a stuff nose some. And have had a few leg cramps but not on a regular basis. Will probably continue to take this medicine. As I have tried 2 other medicine's. And they tend to lower my sugar too low too fast. And I can't stand the low sugar shakes.

Have many of the same side effects as listed with others. But in addition to went to the eye doctor for a checkup. She sent me from there right to my own GP to have me taken off this medicine. She is also sending me go to a eye specialist, she fears I may have suffered vision loss or even damage to left eye.

In less than one week, my sugars had moved down to mostly the 80-90 range at any given time of the day or night. My skin is so much softer and I feel great. My fasting sugar in morning is usually below 105 everyday--am so pleased. No problems healthwise noted at this point. Have been taking Onglyza for 5 weeks now and very pleased. Also take small dosage of Metformin and Amaryl. Blood pressure is good also.

I have been on onglyza for two years now. It has not brought my sugers down enough to really be worth the pain. I have told the Doctor that I hurt all over. I hurt bad in my lower stomach. She wouldn't take me off of it so two months ago I stopped taking it. I hurt even worse now. I guess my body is in shock or something. It's so bad I ach all over and have trouble getting up even walking is difficult. I havent told my doctor yet, but I'm sure she will tell me to start taking it again. I don't know how much more I can deal with the pain. I wish I had never been put on this medication. Is there any hope for me or am I going to have to live this way from now on?Read More Read Less
