There’s no shortage on the attack of diabetes 2 and drugs that are used to combat it.  Just recently we had another drug approved and both are to be used with changed lifestyles and this drug, Jardiance does not depend onimage insulin levels to work.

Federal regulators have approved a new treatment from U.S. drugmaker Eli Lilly and Co. and its German counterpart, Boehringer Ingelheim, for the most common form of diabetes .

The Food and Drug Administration said Friday it will permit Jardiance tablets to be used by adult patients with type 2 diabetes who also are trying to control their condition with diet and exercise.

The drug is designed to be taken once a day to reduce a patient's blood sugar levels by blocking glucose reabsorption in the kidneys and removing excess glucose through urine. Unlike other diabetes treatments, it does not depend on a patient's insulin levels to be effective.
