Patient Counseling Information
- Advise the patient to read the FDA-approved patient labeling (Medication Guide).
Instructions
- Instruct patients to read the Medication Guide before starting ertugliflozin and to reread it each time the prescription is renewed.
- Inform patients of the potential risks and benefits of ertugliflozin and of alternative modes of therapy. Also inform patients about the importance of adherence to dietary instructions, regular physical activity, periodic blood glucose monitoring and HbA1c testing, recognition and management of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia, and assessment for diabetes complications. Advise patients to seek medical advice promptly during periods of stress such as fever, trauma, infection, or surgery, as medication requirements may change.
- Instruct patients to take ertugliflozin only as prescribed. If a dose is missed, advise patients to take it as soon as it is remembered unless it is almost time for the next dose, in which case patients should skip the missed dose and take the medicine at the next regularly scheduled time. Advise patients not to take two doses of ertugliflozin at the same time.
Hypoglycemia with Concomitant Use of Insulin and/or Insulin Secretagogue
- Inform patients that the incidence of hypoglycemia may increase when ertugliflozin is added to insulin and/or an insulin secretagogue and that a lower dose of insulin or insulin secretagogue may be required to reduce the risk of hypoglycemia
Hypotension
- Inform patients that symptomatic hypotension may occur with ertugliflozin and advise them to contact their doctor 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 ertugliflozin. 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 ertugliflozin and seek medical advice immediately.
Acute Kidney Injury
- Inform patients that acute kidney injury has been reported during use of ertugliflozin. 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 ertugliflozin use in those settings.
Monitoring of Renal Function
- Inform patients about the importance of regular testing of renal function when receiving treatment with ertugliflozin.
Serious Urinary Tract Infections
- Inform patients of the potential for urinary tract infections, which may be serious. Provide them with information on the symptoms of urinary tract infections. Advise them to seek medical advice if such symptoms occur.
Amputation
- Inform patients of the potential for an increased risk of amputations. Counsel patients about the importance of routine preventative foot care. Instruct patients to monitor for new pain or tenderness, sores or ulcers, or infections involving the leg or foot and to seek medical advice immediately if such signs or symptoms develop.
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 infection. Advise them of treatment options and when to seek medical advice.
Genital Mycotic Infections in Males (e.g., Balanitis or Balanoposthitis)
- Inform male patients that yeast infections of the penis (e.g., balanitis or balanoposthitis) may occur, especially in uncircumcised males. 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.
Fetal Toxicity
- Advise pregnant patients of the potential risk to a fetus with treatment with ertugliflozin. Instruct patients to immediately inform their healthcare provider if pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
Lactation
- Advise patients that use of ertugliflozin is not recommended while breastfeeding.
Laboratory Tests
- Due to its mechanism of action, inform patients that their urine will test positive for glucose while taking ertugliflozin.
