Hi David - while I'm not speaking from personal experience, there's a good write-up of this drug on Medline Plus. It has a detailed list of possible side effects:

" Dapagliflozin may cause side effects. Tell your doctor if any of these symptoms are severe or do not go away:

- urinating a lot, including at night
- increased thirst

Some side effects can be serious. If you experience any of these symptoms, call your doctor immediately:

- frequent, urgent, burning, or painful urination
- urine that is cloudy, red, pink, or brown
- strong smelling urine
- decrease in amount of urine
- pelvic or rectal pain
- (in women) vaginal odor, white or yellowish vaginal discharge (may be lumpy or look like cottage cheese), or vaginal itching
- (in men) redness, itching, or swelling of the penis; rash on the penis; foul smelling discharge from the penis; or pain in the skin around the penis
- feeling tired, weak, or uncomfortable; along with a fever and pain, tenderness, redness, and swelling of the genitals or the area between the genitals and the rectum
- swelling of the legs or feet

If you experience any of the following symptoms, stop taking dapagliflozin and call your doctor immediately or get emergency medical treatment:

- rash
- hives
- itching
- difficulty breathing or swallowing
- swelling of the face, throat, tongue, lips, mouth, or eyes
- hoarseness

If you experience any of the following symptoms of ketoacidosis, stop taking dapagliflozin and call your doctor immediately or get emergency medical treatment. If possible, check for ketones in your urine if you have these symptoms, even if your blood sugar is less than 250 mg/dL:

- nausea
- vomiting
- stomach-area pain
- tiredness
- difficulty breathing "

Hope this helps! Has anyone else taken this drug and can share their experience?
