Introduction

What is GLIEMPAFLOZIN MET 5MG/500MG?

GLIEMPAFLOZIN MET 5MG/500MG is a fixed-dose combination of two powerful anti-diabetic medicines:

• Empagliflozin 5mg – An SGLT2 inhibitor that helps remove excess glucose through urine

• Metformin Hydrochloride 500mg – A biguanide that lowers glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity

Together, this duo works synergistically to lower blood sugar levels, support cardiovascular health, and assist with weight management. The empagliflozin and metformin hydrochloride tablets combination is ideal for patients who need more than metformin alone or are starting dual therapy from the beginning.

The empagliflozin and metformin hydrochloride tablets are used for:

• Improving blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus

• Reducing the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with known heart disease

• Offering a weight-neutral or weight-reducing effect

• Lowering the risk of hypoglycemia compared to some other diabetes medications

• Supporting kidney protection in long-term diabetic care
