Should I stop taking Xigduo due to a urinary tract infection?

Good morning, after using Xigduo 1000+5 for about 10 days, terrible vulvitis appeared. The gynecologist prescribed medication, but should I stop taking Xigduo and go back to Metformin alone or continue to use Xigduo?

The decision to stop taking Xigduo and return to Metformin is decided by the diabetologist. Therefore, you should seek the advice of a diabetologist, because stopping the use of the drug on your own can lead to a recurrence of symptoms of type 2 diabetes. Guidelines for the prevention of complications of glycosuria include: 1) Hygiene, consisting of washing or rubbing with a wet tissue after urination to remove thoroughly residual urine containing sugar. For this purpose, you can use ordinary water or chamomile infusion. 5 grams of raw material should be added to 1 liter of hot water and leave to cool. With the infusion prepared in this way, you can wash the intimate areas. 2) Hydration - drink a daily portion of fluids (at least 2 liters) so that there is no stagnation of urine. 3) Regular urination. 4) Contact a doctor as soon as possible in case of complaints. If you are not able to visit a stationary visit, I encourage you to take advantage of the teleadvice offered, m.in. by the Gdziepolek.pl portal: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja The role in the prevention of bacterial urinary tract infections is also attributed to cranberry preparations and probiotics. However, these are products that have a supportive effect, not a therapeutic one, e.g. Urolact: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/92121/urolact-proszek-do-wytworzenia-zawiesiny/apteki/ Through the portal, you can compare the prices of a drug or other preparation available without a prescription in online pharmacies and order the drug with home delivery or collection at the pharmacy.
