About this product

Overview

Glempa M 12.5mg/850mg Tablet is a combination medication containing two active ingredients: Empagliflozin & Metformin. Empagliflozin is classified as a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, while metformin belongs to the biguanide class of antidiabetic drugs. This combination medication is used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Active Ingredients

  • Empagliflozin: Functions by inhibiting the reabsorption of glucose in the kidneys, resulting in increased urinary excretion of glucose.
  • Metformin: Works by decreasing hepatic glucose production, reducing intestinal absorption of glucose, and enhancing insulin sensitivity.

Uses

Glempa M Tablet is indicated for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It helps regulate blood sugar levels through different mechanisms: empagliflozin promotes the excretion of glucose in the urine, while metformin reduces hepatic glucose production and improves insulin sensitivity.

Mechanism of Action

  • Empagliflozin: Inhibits sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) in the kidneys, leading to decreased glucose reabsorption and increased urinary glucose excretion.
  • Metformin: Reduces hepatic glucose production, inhibits gluconeogenesis, decreases intestinal absorption of glucose, and enhances peripheral glucose uptake and utilization by improving insulin sensitivity.

Administration

Glempa M Tablet is typically taken orally with meals as directed by a healthcare provider. The dosage may vary based on individual response and other factors. Patients should adhere to the dosage instructions provided by their healthcare provider.

Precautions

  • Regularly monitor blood sugar levels, especially during initial treatment or dosage adjustments.
  • Use caution in patients with kidney problems, dehydration, or hypotension.
