Is Invokana More Useful Than Jalra And Metafort?

CURRENTLY I TAKE
Before Breakfast - 1 Metafort 853g + 1 pioz
Before dinner --> 1JALRA(50MG) + 1 METAFORT 853G

Today I read about Invokana 100mg. Will it be more useful to switch to that after consultation with my doc?
Is it found useful for patients in India who are vegetarians?

hello and welcome.

invokana has got recent approval from fda, so the phase 4 marketing trials are relatively recent. you are on high dose antidiabetics kindly do

hba1c and a recent fasting blood sugar to see if ur sugar is controlled by these drugs or not, get RFTS done too.

if ur sugar is controlled then there is no need of adding or replacing a relatively new drug, against tried and tested ones.

thanx
