About this product

Overview

Empagen M XR 5/1000mg Tablet is a combination medication that contains two active ingredients: Empagliflozin & Metformin HCI in an extended-release formulation. Empagliflozin belongs to a class of medications called sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, while Metformin HCI is a biguanide medication. This combination is commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus, a condition characterized by high blood sugar levels.

Uses

  1. Type 2 diabetes mellitus: Empagen M XR 5/1000mg Tablet is prescribed to individuals with type 2 diabetes to help control blood sugar levels. It works by reducing the amount of glucose absorbed by the kidneys and increasing glucose excretion through urine (Empagliflozin), as well as by improving the body’s sensitivity to insulin and reducing glucose production in the liver (Metformin HCI).
