Glem Lin 10/5mg Tablet

Glem Lin 10/5mg Tablet is a tablet made by Nabiqasim Industries Ltd that contains Empagliflozin + Linagliptin 10/5mg, a combination of an SGLT2 inhibitor and a DPP-4 inhibitor for type 2 diabetes. It is used for type 2 diabetes. Pack size: 14 tablets.

Uses of Glem Lin 10/5mg Tablet

Glem Lin 10/5mg Tablet is used in adults with type 2 diabetes to improve blood sugar control, together with diet and exercise, when metformin or another medicine alone has not been enough. Combining two medicines in one tablet keeps treatment simple. Empagliflozin has also been shown to reduce the risk of death from heart disease in people with type 2 diabetes who already have heart and blood vessel disease.

How Glem Lin 10/5mg Tablet works

Empagliflozin is an SGLT2 inhibitor that makes the kidneys remove extra sugar from the blood through the urine. Linagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that boosts natural gut hormones after meals, so the pancreas releases more insulin and the liver makes less sugar. Together they lower blood sugar in two complementary ways.

Possible side effects

Most people tolerate Glem Lin 10/5mg Tablet well, though side effects can include:

• Genital thrush (fungal infection)
• Urinary tract infections
• Passing more urine
• Thirst
• Cold-like symptoms such as a sore throat or stuffy nose

Get urgent help for nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, unusual tiredness or fast breathing, as these can be signs of ketoacidosis even when blood sugar is not very high. Severe stomach pain spreading to the back, or pain, redness and swelling around the genitals with fever, also need prompt medical attention.

Precautions and warnings

• Drink enough fluids, and ask your doctor about pausing it if you are unwell with vomiting, diarrhoea or dehydration, or before major surgery.
• Low blood sugar is more likely if you also take insulin or a sulfonylurea, so your doctor may adjust those medicines.
• Keep the genital area clean and dry to lower the risk of fungal infections.
• Tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver disease, a history of pancreatitis, or follow a very low-carbohydrate diet.
• It is not used for type 1 diabetes and is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Storage

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in the original pack until use. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
