How it works
This medicine contains two active ingredients: Empagliflozin and Linagliptin. Empagliflozin helps eliminate excess glucose from the body through urine, while Linagliptin lowers glucose production in the liver, slows glucose absorption from the intestines, and improves the body’s response to insulin. Together, they help maintain better blood sugar control.
