So I know that Dapagliflozin is a inhibitor of the sodium glucose cotransporter so does Dapagliflozin cause glucose to just stay in the cell or does it cause glucose to exit the cell? Also if does cause glucose to exit the cell is this a passive or active process. I would think that it would be passive since the glucose is going from high to low?? So is it faciliated passive diffusion?? Please help I am not sure if I am on the right track or not I could be totally wrong so please correct me.
Dapagliflozin is called as the inhibitor of the sodium glucose cotransporter. This is responsible for reabsorbing glucose from urine into blood in the kidneys.
* Dapagliflozin by inhibiting the sodium glucose cotransporter it will reduces the glucose that is reabsorbed, this causes increased glucose excretion in urine.

- The plasma membrane has a hydrophobic interior due to the two present in each phospholipid found in the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane. The plasma membrane allows some molecules to cross but not all. Therefore, the plasma membrane is said to be Molecules that are nonpolar and hydrophobic will cross the membrane with ease by Does this process require energy? When molecules move across the plasma membrane by passive transport, they will move down or with the_ from an area of concentration to an area of. concentration.
