Description
Empaglimet 12.5/1000mg Tablet is a fixed-dose combination of empagliflozin 12.5mg (SGLT2 inhibitor) and metformin 1000mg (biguanide), offering dual-mechanism blood glucose control for adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Empagliflozin promotes urinary glucose excretion by blocking renal SGLT2, while metformin reduces hepatic glucose production and improves peripheral insulin sensitivity. Together, they provide superior glycaemic control compared to either agent alone.
In addition to blood sugar management, the empagliflozin component delivers clinically proven cardiovascular and renal protective benefits. The combination formulation simplifies treatment regimens for patients already requiring both agents, significantly improving adherence. Take with meals to minimise metformin-associated gastrointestinal effects. Not suitable for type 1 diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis, or patients with significant renal impairment.
For monotherapy options, see Empagli 10mg Tablets or Empagli 25mg Tablets for empagliflozin alone.
