Diabities Insulin

Empagliflozin is a medicine used to treat type 2 diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes is a condition where the body does not make enough insulin, or the insulin that it makes does not work properly. This can cause high blood sugar levels (hyperglycaemia).

Your doctor may recommend empagliflozin for treating type 2 diabetes if:

• diet and exercise are not enough to control your blood sugar levels
• you cannot take metformin (another type of diabetes medicine)

It can also be taken together with other diabetes medicines, such as insulin, if a single diabetes medicine is not controlling your blood sugar properly.

Empagliflozin is only available on prescription. It comes as tablets.
