Empha LM 25mg/5mg/1000mg Tablet

Product Introduction
Empha LM 25mg/5mg/1000mg Tablet is a combination medicine designed to help adults with type 2 diabetes manage their blood sugar levels and lower the chances of heart-related complications or death. It works through several mechanisms to reduce glucose levels effectively.

This medicine should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Following the recommended dosage and timing is very important. Skipping doses or stopping the treatment without medical guidance can lead to poor blood sugar management and raise the risk of diabetes-related complications. It gives the best results when used alongside a proper diet and regular physical activity.

Some commonly reported side effects include throat infections, constipation, urinary tract infections, headaches, nasal congestion, sore throat, stomach upset, and diarrhea. Most of these are temporary and may improve as your body adjusts to the treatment. If they continue or cause discomfort, speak with your doctor, who may suggest supportive care or adjust your dose.

People with serious kidney problems, certain types of metabolic acidosis, or allergies to any component of the tablet should not use this medicine. It is also not advised during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Elderly patients and those with liver concerns or who are at risk of dehydration require extra monitoring. Limiting alcohol intake is strongly recommended, as it may increase the risk of harmful effects.

How It Works
Empha LM 25mg/5mg/1000mg Tablet contains three active components: empagliflozin, linagliptin, and metformin hydrochloride.

• Empagliflozin helps the kidneys eliminate excess sugar through urine by blocking a protein called SGLT2, which normally reabsorbs glucose back into the bloodstream.

• Linagliptin prevents the breakdown of certain hormones that assist the pancreas in releasing insulin, especially after meals, to lower blood sugar levels.

• Metformin hydrochloride decreases sugar production in the liver and improves how the body responds to insulin.
  These actions work together to provide comprehensive blood sugar control and reduce the likelihood of complications caused by uncontrolled type 2 diabetes.
