About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Empaxit L 10 Tablet is a combination medication containing Empagliflozin and Linagliptin used to help control blood glucose levels in individuals with diabetes. Empagliflozin works by reducing glucose reabsorption in the kidneys, allowing excess sugar to be removed from the body through urine. Linagliptin works by increasing levels of certain natural hormones that help regulate insulin secretion and reduce glucose production after meals. Together these medicines help improve glycemic control and maintain stable blood sugar levels throughout the day. Maintaining controlled blood glucose is important for preventing diabetes related complications and supporting overall metabolic health. The medicine is usually taken according to the dosage prescribed by a healthcare professional who monitors treatment response. Along with medication, maintaining healthy lifestyle habits such as balanced diet and regular physical activity can further improve treatment effectiveness. When used properly, Empaxit L 10 Tablet helps support effective diabetes management.

About Linagliptin
Linagliptin is an oral medication used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. It belongs to the class of DPP-4 inhibitors, which work by increasing insulin secretion and decreasing glucagon levels in response to meals. This helps lower blood glucose levels effectively. Linagliptin is often prescribed alongside diet and exercise to improve glycemic control. Side effects may include upper respiratory infections and headache. In summary, Linagliptin is a valuable option for managing type 2 diabetes.
How It Works
Linagliptin inhibits the enzyme DPP-4, leading to increased levels of incretin hormones, which promote insulin secretion and inhibit glucagon release, thereby lowering blood glucose levels.
All Active Ingredients
