New Medication

I have seen this advertised a lot lately and it seems to be the answer to my high blood sugars in the morning,
I was wondering if anyone else is on this medication and your thoughts?
thanks for sharing

Even though you do your best to manage your type 2 diabetes, it can be tough to keep your blood sugar under control. One option your doctor has is adding once-daily Onglyza™ (saxagliptin).
Onglyza is an oral prescription medicine used along with diet and exercise to control high blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes.
In clinical studies, Onglyza lowered A1C, morning blood sugar (FPG), and after-meal blood sugar (PPG) when added to one of several common oral diabetes medicines. Onglyza has not been studied with insulin.
If your current oral type 2 diabetes medication is not enough, you may need extra help.
Ask your doctor if adding Onglyza is right for you.
