If you miss a dose of Canagliflozin, it’s important to handle the situation carefully to maintain your blood sugar levels. This guide will help you understand what steps to take and when to seek advice from your healthcare provider.
What to Do Immediately After Missing a Dose
If you realize you’ve missed a dose within a few hours of the scheduled time, take it as soon as possible. However, if it’s almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up, as this can increase the risk of side effects.

- Keep your medication in a visible place as a reminder.
By staying organized and aware, you can ensure consistent medication intake and better manage your health. Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions and reach out if you have any concerns about your medication or missed doses.
