Frequently asked questions about empagliflozin

Empagliflozin (Jardiance) is a prescription drug used to treat type 2 diabetes. This medication decreases your body’s blood glucose level to get your type 2 diabetes under control. Not only does empagliflozin help manage blood sugar levels, but it can also help patients with type 2 diabetes reduce their risk of heart attack, stroke, and death.

Empagliflozin is prescribed in conjunction with other treatment measures such as exercise and dietary changes to help patients lose weight and prevent serious complications caused by diabetes.

Empagliflozin is supplied under the brand name Jardiance.

Empagliflozin (Jardiance) is prescribed as a treatment for type 2 diabetes. Diabetes is a chronic condition in which the body does not properly process food into energy. When we eat food (particularly carbs) the body turns it into glucose (sugar), the substance our body uses as energy. Central to this process is insulin, a hormone made by the pancreas to help cells absorb glucose. In people with diabetes, the body either does not produce enough insulin or uses it inefficiently. This causes the blood sugar, or blood glucose levels, to either get too high (hyperglycemia) or too low (hypoglycemia).

Empagliflozin is not used to treat type 1 diabetes – an autoimmune condition in which your body attacks your pancreas with antibodies causing the organ to stop producing insulin. If you have been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, your health care provider will prescribe a different form of medication and therapy for you.

Empagliflozin (Jardiance) belongs to a classification of medication known as sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. These drugs work by blocking the absorption of blood sugar (glucose) into the kidneys. By doing so, empagliflozin encourages the kidneys to release excess blood sugar through urine flow. This can help patients managing type 2 diabetes control their blood sugar levels.

Note that empagliflozin will not cure type 2 diabetes. It is often prescribed in conjunction with dietary changes and lifestyle adjustments (such as physical exercise) to prevent severe complications caused by diabetes.

Empagliflozin (Jardiance) has been shown to cause some side effects. If these adverse reactions do not go away within a few days, talk to your health care provider.
