Invokana, a type 2 diabetes drug manufactured by Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen Pharmaceutical, has been linked to ketoacidosis, a potentially fatal condition involving elevated blood acid levels. Farxiga, Jardiance and other “SGLT2 inhibitors” have also been associated with the dangerous complication. The Food & Drug Administration has warned current patients to watch for symptoms and is considering further regulatory action.
As a result, patients who suffered ketoacidosis after being prescribed Invokana or other SGLT2 inhibitors are considering legal action.
