Ganagliflozin

Warnings and Precautions

Who should not take it: people allergic to the medicine or its ingredients, and people with severe kidney impairment, end-stage kidney disease or on dialysis. It is not recommended if eGFR stays below 30 mL/min/1.73 m².

• Genital and urinary infections: because more sugar passes into the urine, genital yeast infections can occur. In women, they affected 4.4% on 50 mg against 1.0% on placebo. Urinary infections were not more common than with placebo (1.1% against 2.2%). Drink enough water and report burning, itching or discharge.
• Ketoacidosis: no cases occurred in the trials, but this rare, serious condition has been reported with other medicines of the same class, sometimes with only mildly raised sugar. Seek help at once for nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, unusual tiredness or fast breathing. The doctor may pause it before surgery or during prolonged fasting.
• Dehydration and low blood pressure: it works partly like a mild water tablet. Older people, people on diuretics and those with kidney problems need extra care.
• Kidney function: a small, early dip in kidney filtration can occur. Kidney tests are recommended before starting and about every 6 months.
• Feet: a higher risk of toe and foot amputation has been seen with other medicines of this class. Check your feet daily, especially if you have had ulcers or poor circulation.
• Low blood sugar: rates were below 2% in the trials, with no severe episodes, but the risk rises when combined with insulin or tablets that push the pancreas to release insulin.

Other findings: ketones in the urine were seen in 10.0% (25 mg) and 14.1% (50 mg) against 4.3% on placebo, and raised bilirubin in 2.5% on 50 mg. LDL cholesterol rose slightly. It is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and safety under 18 years has not been established.

Documentation & Availability

What documents are required to import Ganagliflozin to India?

The tablets can be imported only in the patient's name, by the patient or a government hospital, in line with India's import regulations for unapproved medicines. You will need:

• A valid prescription from a qualified endocrinologist, diabetologist or physician
• Recent reports confirming type 2 diabetes, such as HbA1c and fasting blood sugar, plus a kidney function test (creatinine/eGFR)
• Patient ID proof (issued by the Government of India)

How is the order confirmed?

Once we have received and checked a valid prescription and, where needed, an import permit.

Is Ganagliflozin available in India?

No. It is approved only in China. It has no CDSCO approval, it is not sold in Indian pharmacies, and the US FDA and European Medicines Agency have not approved it either.
