What is Invokamet?

Invokamet is a prescription medication given to adults with type 2 diabetes to:

1. Help lower blood sugar, when used alongside exercise and diet changes
2. Reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events, like heart attacks and strokes
3. Reduce the risk of worsening of kidney function, end stage kidney disease (ESKD), hospitalization for heart failure, and cardiovascular death

Type 2 diabetes can be treated, and in many cases, cured, usually by combining diabetes medications with lifestyle changes, like eating a healthier diet, exercising more, losing weight, and reducing your blood pressure and cholesterol. If you have type 2 diabetes, your doctor may prescribe Invokamet to you as part of a holistic treatment plan.

Invokamet is a non-insulin medication you take by swallowing it as a tablet. It contains two active ingredients that help to lower your blood glucose by making you lose more glucose in your urine, by reducing how much stored glucose your liver releases, by making your cells more sensitive to insulin, and by helping you to eat less.

Invokamet active ingredients

Invokamet contains two active ingredients called canagliflozin and metformin hydrochloride. They work together to help lower your blood glucose and to reduce your risk of complications of type 2 diabetes.

Canagliflozin is a type of drug called an SGLT2 inhibitor. When you take Invokamet, the canagliflozin it contains enters your kidneys. Your kidneys help to recycle glucose from your urine back into your blood, and they do so with the help of a protein called SGLT2. But canagliflozin blocks this SGLT2 protein, stopping it from working. This reduces how much glucose your kidneys recycle back into your blood and increases how much you lose in your urine.

Metformin hydrochloride, usually just called metformin, helps to reduce your blood glucose in three ways. It makes your cells more sensitive to insulin, so they absorb more glucose from your blood. It reduces how much stored glucose your liver releases into your blood. And metformin can also reduce your appetite, limiting how much you eat and how much glucose you take in with each meal.
