Empanorm M 12.5mg/1000mg Tablet

Empanorm M 12.5mg/1000mg Tablet is a combination medication used to manage blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It works most effectively when combined with a balanced diet and regular physical activity. The medicine enhances the body’s use of insulin and helps lower excess glucose in the blood. It is generally taken with meals at any time of day, but maintaining a consistent schedule is recommended. Dosage should be followed exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Do not stop taking this medicine without medical advice, as doing so may lead to increased blood sugar levels and serious complications such as kidney damage, nerve issues, or vision problems. This treatment is part of a comprehensive diabetes care plan that includes lifestyle modifications.

Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, changes in taste, diarrhea, joint pain, urinary tract infections, and fungal infections in the genital area. Drinking plenty of fluids can help prevent dehydration. Good personal hygiene practices can reduce the risk of genital infections. Before starting this medication, inform your doctor if you have kidney or liver problems, urinary tract infections, or if you’re taking diuretic medications. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using this medicine. Avoid excessive alcohol consumption during treatment, as it may increase the risk of side effects. Regular monitoring of your blood sugar levels is important to ensure the medication is working effectively.

This medicine helps control high blood sugar by combining two active ingredients: empagliflozin and metformin. Empagliflozin works by removing extra glucose through the urine, while metformin reduces glucose production in the liver, slows down its absorption in the digestive tract, and increases the body’s sensitivity to insulin. The combination provides improved blood sugar control and may also reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications in people who have both diabetes and heart disease. If a dose is missed, it should be taken as soon as remembered, but if it’s nearly time for the next dose, skip the missed one and continue with the regular schedule. Do not take a double dose.
