Study Details

Exercise is frequently prescribed as a favorable lifestyle intervention to prevent/reverse type 2 diabetes. It is also prescribed in addition to concurrent pharmacological treatment, such as metformin. Recent data (animal and human) suggest that metformin may attenuate the favorable benefits of exercise training. In light of the physiological mechanism of Dapagliflozin (sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibition), one might speculate that rather than inhibit, it will augment the favorable adaptations to exercise training.
