Glyxambi

Glyxambi is a prescription tablet used to help manage type 2 diabetes along with a balanced diet and regular exercise. It combines two medicines - empagliflozin and linagliptin. Taken once daily, it helps control blood sugar. Empagliflozin, one of Glyxambi’s active ingredients, has shown cardiovascular benefits in certain patients with type 2 diabetes. However, Glyxambi is not approved for reducing cardiovascular risk. It is not suitable for people with type 1 diabetes or certain medical conditions.

Glyxambi is FDA-approved to treat:

• Type 2 diabetes with diet and regular exercise

Glyxambi works by combining two medications, empagliflozin and linagliptin, to lower blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. Empagliflozin is an SGLT2 inhibitor that helps the kidneys remove extra sugar from the body through urine. Linagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that increases natural hormones called incretins. These hormones stimulate insulin release from the pancreas after meals and reduce sugar production in the liver.

Follow this Glyxambi dosing schedule for managing type 2 diabetes.

If you are prescribed Glyxambi for type 2 diabetes mellitus, follow these administration guidelines:

• Always take Glyxambi at the same time each day. This helps maintain steady blood sugar control.
• Food does not affect how the medicine works, so you may take it after breakfast or on an empty stomach.
• Take this tablet with a glass of water.
• Drink enough water while taking Glyxambi tablets to reduce the risk of dehydration, dizziness, or low blood pressure.
• Glyxambi works best when combined with healthy eating and regular physical activity.

• Do not take Glyxambi if you have had a serious allergic reaction to empagliflozin, linagliptin, or any of their ingredients.
• Glyxambi (empagliflozin/linagliptin) tablets must not be used in patients with severe kidney problems or those on dialysis.
• People with a history of pancreatitis should be cautious, as linagliptin may increase this risk.
• There is a risk of ketoacidosis, which can be serious and requires immediate medical attention.
• Inform your doctor if you have liver problems, since dose adjustments or closer monitoring may be necessary.
• When combined with insulin or sulfonylureas, Glyxambi may increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
• Glyxambi is not recommended during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. This is due to the potential risk to the developing fetus.
• Breastfeeding is not recommended because it is unknown if the medicine passes into breast milk. Consult your doctor for this.

If you miss a dose of a Glyxambi tablet, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed Glyxambi dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not double dose or take extra medication to make up for a missed dose, as this may increase the risk of side effects. You should maintain a consistent routine to avoid missing a dose of Glyxambi.

Overdosing on Glyxambi tablets may cause dehydration and acute kidney injury. You may experience Glyxambi overdose symptoms, which may include fainting, dizziness, rapid heartbeat, confusion, severe nausea or vomiting, abdominal pain, and fruity-smelling breath. If you suspect a Glyxambi overdose, contact the poison control center or your healthcare provider immediately.
