Jardiance is a drug that increases the excretion of glucose in the urine, so the very mode of action of the drug predisposes to the occurrence of urinary tract infections. Urine with an increased amount of glucose is an excellent breeding ground for microbes. Reducing the severity of side effects can be achieved by increasing the amount of water drunk during the day (2-3 l of water a day is the correct amount for most people in adulthood). In addition, special attention should be paid to the hygiene of intimate areas: in addition to the daily toilet, as far as possible care should be taken care of penile hygiene after each urination, use underwear made of airy fabrics. Burning during urination may indicate the beginnings of a developing urinary tract infection.
