As an SGLT2 inhibitor, the dosage and administration of Inpefa should be adjusted according to individual patient conditions. Special attention should be paid to the use of Inpefa during pregnancy and monitoring of renal function in special populations.

Standard usage and dosage

2. Medication method: Swallow the whole tablet, it can be taken with food or alone, but avoid taking it with high-fat meals to affect absorption rate.

(3) Children: Insufficient safety data for patients under 18 years old, not recommended for use.

(4) Elderly individuals: No need to adjust the starting dose, but need to strengthen renal function monitoring (eGFR testing every 3 months).

(5) Renal dysfunction: When eGFR<45mL/min/1.73m ², it should be reduced to 100mg/day; Disabled when<30mL/min/1.73m ².

(6) Liver function impairment: mild to moderate without dose adjustment; Child Pugh Class C patients are contraindicated.

Principle of dose adjustment

When blood sugar control is poor: it is not recommended to increase the dosage on your own, and dietary and exercise compliance should be evaluated first.

3. Pre - and post-operative management: Medication should be suspended for 3 days before the scheduled surgery, and renal function should be restored after the surgery is stable.

Standard storage conditions
