Used For:

Empagli 10mg contains Empagliflozin, which is a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor. It is used for managing type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults by helping to lower blood sugar levels. Empagliflozin works by:

• Reducing the reabsorption of glucose in the kidneys, allowing excess glucose to be excreted through urine.
• It may also help reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, such as heart attack or stroke, in patients with type 2 diabetes who have cardiovascular disease.

Side Effects:

Common side effects may include:

• Increased urination
• Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
• Genital yeast infections (especially in women)
• Increased thirst
• Low blood sugar (when combined with insulin or other diabetes medications)
• Nausea
• Dizziness
• Low blood pressure (especially in patients who take diuretics or are dehydrated)

Precautions:

• Kidney function: This medication may not be suitable for patients with severe kidney issues. Regular monitoring of kidney function is recommended.
• Heart disease: If you have a history of cardiovascular disease, consult your doctor before starting this medication.
• Dehydration: Increased urination can lead to dehydration. Drink plenty of fluids.
• Hypoglycemia risk: While empagliflozin alone is unlikely to cause low blood sugar, it may do so when taken with other diabetes medications like insulin or sulfonylureas.
• Pregnancy and breastfeeding: Empagli should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding unless prescribed by a healthcare professional.
• Liver problems: Use with caution if you have liver issues.
• Ketoacidosis: Rarely, SGLT2 inhibitors like empagliflozin may increase the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a serious condition. Seek medical attention if symptoms such as difficulty breathing, nausea, vomiting, or severe fatigue occur.
