Empabite S 25/100 Tablet

Empabite S 25/100 Tablet is a combination medicine prescribed for adults with type 2 diabetes to help manage high blood sugar levels. It works by assisting the kidneys in removing excess sugar from the body and enhancing the body’s insulin response. When used alongside a healthy diet and regular exercise, it supports long-term blood sugar management and overall diabetes care.

For optimal results, this medicine should be taken regularly as directed by your doctor. Consistent use helps maintain stable blood sugar levels and reduces the risk of complications related to diabetes, such as kidney issues, nerve damage, and heart problems. Even if symptoms improve, do not stop the treatment without medical advice, as diabetes requires ongoing management. Following your treatment plan in combination with lifestyle measures improves long-term outcomes.

Some common side effects may include urinary tract infections, fungal infections, respiratory infections, or headaches. If these persist or worsen, consult your doctor, who may recommend adjustments or supportive treatments. Staying hydrated can help minimize some side effects.

Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor about any kidney or liver problems, urinary tract infections, heart conditions, or if you are taking diuretics. It is not suitable for people with type 1 diabetes or a history of diabetic ketoacidosis. Older adults, those who are dehydrated, or patients on other medications should use caution. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should only take this medicine under medical supervision.

Empabite S 25/100 Tablet contains empagliflozin and sitagliptin. Empagliflozin helps the kidneys eliminate extra sugar through urine, while sitagliptin increases insulin release when blood sugar is high and reduces sugar production in the liver. Together, they work in complementary ways to provide more effective blood sugar control than either medicine alone.

Most side effects are mild and usually resolve as your body adapts. Common effects include urinary tract infections, fungal infections, mild respiratory infections, headaches, and minor digestive issues. Medical advice should be sought if side effects persist.

The tablet should be swallowed whole and should not be crushed or chewed. It can be taken with or without food, but taking it at the same time each day helps maintain steady blood sugar levels.

Caution is advised when consuming alcohol. The medicine may not be safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless specifically approved by a doctor. It can affect alertness, vision, or cause dizziness, so avoid driving if these occur. Patients with kidney or liver conditions should use this medicine under medical supervision, as dose adjustments may be necessary.

If a dose is missed, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next scheduled dose, skip the missed one and continue your normal routine. Never take two doses at the same time to make up for a missed tablet.
