Description

Xenglu-Met (12.5mg/500mg) Tablets contains empagliflozin 12.5mg and metformin hydrochloride 500mg, a combination prescription medicine used to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is recommended for patients whose blood sugar is not adequately controlled through diet, exercise, or a single diabetes medication. The two active ingredients work together to provide better glucose control and support long-term diabetes management.

Empagliflozin belongs to the SGLT2 inhibitor class and helps the kidneys remove excess glucose through urine, reducing blood sugar levels. Metformin decreases glucose production in the liver, reduces intestinal glucose absorption, and improves the body’s response to insulin. Together, these medicines help maintain stable blood glucose levels while supporting healthy lifestyle measures such as balanced nutrition and regular physical activity.

For the best results, take Xenglu-Met exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Continue monitoring your blood sugar regularly and follow your recommended diet and exercise plan. This medicine is not suitable for type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis, and you should not change the dose without medical advice.
