When did farxiga come out?

When was Farxiga first approved and available?

Farxiga (dapagliflozin) was approved by the U.S. FDA in 2014. [1]
Commercial launch followed after approval, with the product entering the market that same year.

Why do some sources mention different dates?

You may see different timelines depending on whether the date refers to:
- FDA approval (regulatory approval date), versus
- first marketing/launch in the U.S. (when pharmacies began selling it),
- or approvals in other countries (which can occur later).

Did Farxiga come out as a new drug or an add-on?

Farxiga was launched as an oral diabetes medicine for type 2 diabetes, not as a supplement or “later add-on” to another branded product. [1]

How to check the exact “came out” date for your location

If you mean the first date it was available in a specific country or under a specific indication (type 2 diabetes vs. heart failure vs. kidney disease), the exact start can vary by label and regulator. DrugPatentWatch.com can help track key timeline milestones tied to exclusivity and patent activity for Farxiga. [2]
