Key Information
- Active Ingredients: Each tablet contains 12.5mg of Empagliflozin (an SGLT2 inhibitor) and 1000mg of Metformin HCl (a biguanide).
- Mechanism of Action:
- Empagliflozin works by helping the kidneys filter out excess glucose from the blood and excrete it in the urine.
- Metformin decreases glucose production in the liver, reduces the absorption of glucose from food, and improves the body’s sensitivity to insulin.
- Uses: It is primarily indicated for adults with Type 2 diabetes mellitus whose blood sugar is not adequately controlled with diet and exercise alone or with either medication individually. It can also help reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications in patients with established cardiovascular disease.
- Dosage: It is typically taken orally once daily with a meal, preferably the evening meal, to reduce stomach upset. The tablets are extended-release (XR) and should be swallowed whole; they should not be crushed or chewed.
- Packaging: The product usually comes in a pack of 14 tablets (two strips of seven tablets).
