Patient Counseling Information
Pancreatitis
- Inform patients that acute pancreatitis has been reported during postmarketing use of saxagliptin. Inform patients that persistent severe abdominal pain, sometimes radiating to the back, which may or may not be accompanied by vomiting, is the hallmark symptom of acute pancreatitis.
- Instruct patients to promptly discontinue QTERN and contact their healthcare provider if persistent severe abdominal pain occurs.
Heart Failure
- Inform patients of the signs and symptoms of heart failure. Instruct patients to contact their healthcare provider as soon as possible if they experience symptoms of heart failure, including increasing shortness of breath, rapid increase in weight or swelling of the feet.
Hypotension
- Inform patients that symptomatic hypotension may occur with QTERN and advise them to contact their healthcare provider if they experience such symptoms. Inform patients that dehydration may increase the risk for hypotension, and to have adequate fluid intake.
Ketoacidosis
- Inform patients that ketoacidosis is a serious life-threatening condition. Cases of ketoacidosis have been reported during use of dapagliflozin. Instruct patients to check ketones (when possible) if symptoms consistent with ketoacidosis occur even if blood glucose is not elevated. If symptoms of ketoacidosis (including nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, tiredness and labored breathing) occur, instruct patients to discontinue QTERN and seek medical advice immediately.
Acute Kidney Injury
- Inform patients that acute kidney injury has been reported during use of dapagliflozin. Advise patients to seek medical advice immediately if they have reduced oral intake (due to acute illness or fasting) or increased fluid losses (due to vomiting, diarrhea, or excessive heat exposure), as it may be appropriate to temporarily discontinue QTERN use in those settings.
Serious Urinary Tract Infections
- Inform patients of the potential for urinary tract infections, which may be serious. Inform them of the symptoms of urinary tract infections and advise them to seek medical advice if symptoms occur.
Hypersensitivity Reactions
- Inform patients that serious hypersensitivity reactions (e.g., anaphylaxis, angioedema, urticaria, and exfoliative skin conditions) have been reported with dapagliflozin and saxagliptin, components of QTERN. Symptoms of these allergic reactions include: rash, skin flaking or peeling, urticaria, swelling of the skin, or swelling of the face, lips, tongue, and throat that may cause difficulty in breathing or swallowing.
- Advise patients to immediately report any signs or symptoms suggesting allergic reaction, angioedema or exfoliative skin conditions, and stop taking QTERN and seek medical advice promptly.
Genital Mycotic Infections in Females (e.g., Vulvovaginitis)
- Inform female patients that vaginal yeast infections may occur and provide them with information on the signs and symptoms of vaginal yeast infections. Advise them of treatment options and when to seek medical advice.
Genital Mycotic Infections (e.g., Balanitis)
- Inform male patients that yeast infections of the penis (e.g., balanitis or balanoposthitis) may occur, especially in patients with prior history. Provide them with information on the signs and symptoms of balanitis and balanoposthitis (rash or redness of the glans or foreskin of the penis). Advise them of treatment options and when to seek medical advice.
Bladder Cancer
- Inform patients to promptly report any signs of macroscopic hematuria or other symptoms potentially related to bladder cancer.
Severe and Disabling Arthralgia
- Inform patients that severe and disabling joint pain may occur with this class of drugs. The time to onset of symptoms can range from one day to years. Instruct patients to seek medical advice if severe joint pain occurs.
Bullous Pemphigoid
- Inform patients that bullous pemphigoid may occur with QTERN. Instruct patients to seek medical advice if blisters or erosions occur.
Pregnancy and Lactating Mothers
- Advise pregnant patients of the potential risk to a fetus with treatment with QTERN. Instruct patients to immediately inform their healthcare provider if pregnant or planning to become pregnant. Advise patients that use of QTERN is not recommended while breastfeeding.
Laboratory Tests
- Inform patients that due to its mechanism of action, patients taking QTERN will test positive for glucose in their urine.
