Summary Safety Review - SGLT2 Inhibitors (canagliflozin, dapagliflozin, empagliflozin) - Assessing the Potential Risk of Bone-Related Side Effects
The minerals stored within the bones help provide strength. Bones that have fewer minerals (less bone mineral density) are more likely to become brittle and break (fracture). A safety review was carried out by Health Canada to evaluate the risk of bone-related side effects of using SGLT2 inhibitors. The review was triggered by a notice about international reports of bone-related side effects experienced in patients taking the SGLT2 inhibitor canagliflozin.
