Diabetes is associated with increased susceptibility to infec tion. The fact that the patient has a normal blood glucose indicates that her medications are reducing blood glucose and, combined with a urinary tract infection, further suggests that urine glucose is elevated. Increased glucose excretion in the urine is an effect of the SGLT2 inhibitors. The answer is B, dapagliflozin.
