6 15 mg dapagliflozin propanediol monohydrate equivalent to 5 mg dapagliflozin?

What does “6 x 15 mg dapagliflozin propanediol monohydrate” mean in terms of dapagliflozin?

“Dapagliflozin propanediol monohydrate equivalent to” is a label used to show how much active dapagliflozin is delivered by a given weight of the propanediol salt/formulation.

Based on the usual equivalence used in labeling for this salt form, 6 tablets of 15 mg dapagliflozin propanediol monohydrate correspond to 45 mg of dapagliflozin (i.e., 6 × 7.5 mg).

So, 6 × 15 mg (propanediol monohydrate) is not equivalent to 5 mg dapagliflozin. The equivalent dapagliflozin amount is higher.

How to calculate the equivalence (so you can verify your specific label)

For dapagliflozin propanediol monohydrate, the conversion factor used on many product labels is:
- 1 mg dapagliflozin propanediol monohydrate ≈ 0.5 mg dapagliflozin (active drug equivalent)

Using that:
- Total salt amount = 6 × 15 mg = 90 mg
- Equivalent dapagliflozin = 90 mg × 0.5 = 45 mg

If your question is about a prescription strength (e.g., “15 mg tablet equals 5 mg dapagliflozin”)

A statement like “15 mg equals 5 mg” would imply a 1:3 conversion, which does not match the standard salt-to-equivalent relationship used for dapagliflozin propanediol monohydrate.

If you share the exact product name (and whether it is tablets or a different formulation), I can help you confirm the precise equivalence written on that specific label.
