This is required by the pharmaceutical manufacturers who will supply the medication, so it is important to make sure this information is accurate and up to date.
We will review the information that you have provided to determine whether you are eligible for patient assistance. If we can pre-qualify you for assistance, NiceRx will handle the full enrollment process on your behalf. If you are approved by the pharmaceutical company, you will typically start receiving your medication in 6 – 8 weeks.

What is Qtern?
Qtern contains the prescription medicines dapagliflozin and saxagliptin, which both help to control your blood sugar levels. Dapagliflozin works by helping your kidneys get rid of excess glucose from your bloodstream. Saxagliptin works by controlling the levels of insulin your body makes after you have eaten. Qtern is used in combination with diet and exercise to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Qtern is also used to reduce the risk of death from heart failure, stroke, or heart attacks in adults with type 2 diabetes who also have heart disease. Qtern is not recommended for the treatment of type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis.
Qtern active ingredients
Dapagliflozin blocks the action of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2). Doing this reduces the reabsorption of glucose and your bodys’ glucose threshold, causing your body to excrete more glucose in your urine.
Incretin hormone levels are increased when you have a meal. These hormones cause insulin release from your pancreatic beta cells but are stopped from doing this within minutes by DPP-4 enzyme. GLP-1 lowers glucagon release from pancreatic cells, which reduces glucose production from the liver. Patients with type 2 diabetes have reduced concentrations of GLP-1, but their bodys’ insulin response to GLP-1 is normal. Saxagliptin helps to slow the inactivation of the incretin hormones, which helps to increase the incretin hormone levels in your bloodstream. This helps to reduce your glucose levels during fasting and after meals in a manner that is dependant on your glucose levels with type 2 diabetes.
Qtern side effects
The most common side effects caused by Qtern include:
- Sinus pain, runny or blocked nose
