Empagliflozin + Linagliptin

Uses

Empagliflozin and Linagliptin are used in the treatment of diabetes.

How it Works

How Empagliflozin and Linagliptin Work Empagliflozin and Linagliptin is a combination of two antidiabetic medications. Empagliflozin works by eliminating excess glucose from the body through urine. Linagliptin functions by reducing glucose production in the liver, delaying glucose absorption from the intestines, and increasing the body's sensitivity to insulin.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Empagliflozin and Linagliptin include hypoglycemia (low blood glucose level), cough, nasopharyngitis (inflammation of the throat and nasal passages), vomiting, constipation, nausea, genital fungal infection, and urinary tract infection.

Expert Advice

  • It may also reduce the risk of heart attack, heart failure, or other cardiovascular events.
  • You should continue to:
    • Exercise regularly
    • Eat a healthy diet
    • Take your other diabetes medications (if prescribed) along with Empagliflozin + Linagliptin
  • Take this medication with food to lower your chances of experiencing an upset stomach.
  • Practice good genital hygiene to prevent yeast or urinary tract infections.
  • This medication may cause your body to lose too much fluid (dehydration) or increase urination frequency.
  • Drink plenty of water, stay hydrated, and rise slowly if you have been sitting or lying down.
  • It can cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar levels) when used with other antidiabetic medications, alcohol, or if you delay or miss a meal.
  • Check your blood sugar levels regularly.
  • Always carry some sugary food or fruit juice with you in case you experience hypoglycemia symptoms such as:
    • Cold sweats
    • Cool, pale skin
    • Tremors
