Product Description
Product Name: Empagli Tablets 25mg
Product Form: Tablets
Pack Size: 14's
Manufactured By: High-Q Pharma
Used For:
Empagli 25mg 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.
