About this product

Overview

Empaa 10mg Tablet contains empagliflozin, which belongs to a class of medications known as sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. It is primarily used in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Empagliflozin works by inhibiting SGLT2 in the kidneys, thereby reducing glucose reabsorption and increasing urinary glucose excretion, which helps lower blood sugar levels.

Uses

Empaa 10mg Tablet is prescribed for:

  1. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: It is used as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
  2. Cardiovascular Risk Reduction: In addition to glycemic control, empagliflozin has been shown to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, such as heart attacks, strokes, and cardiovascular death, in patients with established cardiovascular disease.
