Before starting this medicine, let your doctor know if you have kidney or liver problems, urinary tract infections, or if you are taking water pills (diuretics).

How Empha-M Tablet works
This medicine contains two active ingredients: Empagliflozin and Metformin. Empagliflozin helps the kidneys flush out extra sugar through urine. Metformin works by reducing the production of glucose in the liver, slowing its absorption in the gut, and improving the body’s response to insulin. Together, these actions help lower blood sugar more effectively.
