Empagliflozin 25 mg IR

Indication:

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) to improve blood sugar control, Heart failure to reduce cardiovascular death and hospitalization, Chronic kidney disease (CKD) to slow progression and lower CV risk.

Description:

Empagliflozin 25mg IR is a once-daily oral antidiabetic drug from the SGLT2 (Sodium-Glucose Co-Transporter 2) inhibitor class, used in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It works by blocking glucose reabsorption in the kidneys, thereby promoting glucose excretion in the urine. This mechanism helps lower blood sugar levels independently of insulin.

The 25mg strength is often prescribed for patients requiring intensified glycemic control or those who do not achieve adequate control on the 10mg dose. In addition to its glucose-lowering effects, Empagliflozin 25mg has demonstrated cardiovascular and renal protective benefits, including reduced risk of hospitalization due to heart failure and progression of kidney disease.

This immediate-release (IR) formulation ensures rapid absorption and is suitable for daily use with or without food.
