Indications/Uses
Type 2 diabetes mellitus: JARDIANCE is indicated in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus to improve glycaemic control in adults as: Monotherapy: When diet and exercise alone do not provide adequate glycaemic control in patients for whom use of metformin is considered inappropriate due to intolerance.
Add-on combination therapy: In combination with other glucose-lowering medicinal products including insulin, when these, together with diet and exercise, do not provide adequate glycaemic control (see Precautions, Interactions and Pharmacology: Pharmacodynamics under Actions for available data on different combinations).
Add-on combination in patients with established cardiovascular disease: JARDIANCE is indicated as an adjunct to diet, exercise and standard care therapy to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular death in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and established cardiovascular disease who have inadequate glycemic control (see Pharmacology: Pharmacodynamics under Actions).
Heart failure (HF): JARDIANCE is indicated in adult patients with heart failure (NYHA class II-IV), with or without type 2 diabetes mellitus to reduce the risk of cardiovascular death and hospitalisation for heart failure.
Chronic kidney disease: JARDIANCE is indicated to reduce the risk of sustained decline in eGFR, end-stage kidney disease, cardiovascular death, and hospitalisation in adults with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression.
