JARDIANCE MET 5MG/500MG – 10 TABLETS

Description

JARDIANCE MET 5MG/500MG combines two powerful agents, empagliflozin and metformin, to manage type 2 diabetes. Empagliflozin, an SGLT2 inhibitor, works by reducing glucose reabsorption in the kidneys, increasing glucose excretion. Metformin, a biguanide, improves insulin sensitivity and reduces hepatic glucose production. This combination enhances glycemic control, reduces HbA1c levels, and supports overall metabolic health.

Usage Instructions:
Dosage: Take one JARDIANCE MET 5MG/500MG tablet twice daily, with or without food.
Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water. Do not crush or chew.
Consistency: For optimal results, take the medication at the same times each day.
Missed Dose: If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it’s close to the time of your next dose, skip the missed dose—do not double up.
Medicinal Advantages:
JARDIANCE MET 5MG/500MG provides effective control of blood sugar levels through its dual-action formula. Empagliflozin reduces glucose reabsorption and increases glucose excretion, while metformin enhances insulin sensitivity and decreases liver glucose production. Together, they help lower HbA1c levels, improve glycemic control, and support weight management.

Mechanism of Action:
Empagliflozin: Inhibits the SGLT2 protein in the kidneys, reducing glucose reabsorption and increasing urinary glucose excretion.
Metformin: Improves insulin sensitivity in muscle cells and reduces glucose production in the liver. This combination helps regulate blood glucose levels more effectively.
Off-Label Uses:
While JARDIANCE MET 5MG/500MG is specifically indicated for type 2 diabetes, it may also be used off-label for other conditions associated with insulin resistance or metabolic syndrome, based on clinical judgment and patient needs.

Expert Advice:
For best results with JARDIANCE MET 5MG/500MG, adhere strictly to the prescribed dosage and maintain a balanced diet and regular exercise regimen. Regular blood glucose monitoring is essential for assessing treatment efficacy. Consult your healthcare provider for routine check-ups and to make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

Precautions:
Kidney Function: Regularly monitor kidney function as empagliflozin may affect renal health. Avoid using the medication if kidney function is impaired.
Lactic Acidosis: Metformin can cause lactic acidosis in rare cases. Watch for symptoms like unusual tiredness or breathing difficulties and seek medical attention if they occur.
