Empaone 25 mg Tablet

Empaone 25 mg Tablet is a prescription tablet that contains empagliflozin 25 mg in each tablet. It belongs to the SGLT2 inhibitor class and is used to help improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes. Empaone 25 mg Tablet may also be prescribed to lower the risk of certain heart-related or kidney-related problems in people who have diabetes and related conditions, when a doctor decides it is appropriate. This pack contains 10 tablets, and each tablet delivers the full 25 mg strength.

How it works: Empagliflozin helps your kidneys remove extra sugar through the urine instead of keeping it in the blood. As a tablet, Empaone 25 mg Tablet is swallowed and then works throughout the day to help reduce blood sugar levels when taken as prescribed.

Empaone 25 mg Tablet is the higher-strength version compared with Empaone 10 mg Tablet. Doctors may choose Empaone 25 mg Tablet for patients who need more glucose-lowering effect after being assessed on a lower dose, rather than starting at this strength for everyone. It is not a faster-acting tablet, but it may provide a stronger treatment effect once your prescriber decides the 25 mg dose is right for you.
