Glyxambi

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Glyxambi for managing blood sugar in patients with type 2 diabetes combined with a proper diet and exercise routine. This medicine contains two different drugs – empagliflozin and linagliptin. Glyxambi tablets come in two different strengths: 10 mg and 25 mg empagliflozin with 5 mg linagliptin for both. Empagliflozin is in a group of medicines called sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors, while linagliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor. Right now, there isn’t a generic version of Glyxambi available. So, if you want to buy Glyxambi online from a Canadian Pharmacy, get the prescription from your doctor first.

This medicine is a combination of two drugs, empagliflozin and linagliptin. This FDA-approved medication is used, along with a healthy diet and exercise, to manage high blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes. By controlling high blood sugar, it helps prevent kidney damage, vision problems, nerve issues, limb loss, and sexual function issues. Glyxambi tablets have two strengths: one with 10 mg of empagliflozin and 5 mg of linagliptin and another with 25 mg of empagliflozin and 5 mg of linagliptin. 

Dosage varies based on age, health conditions, and other medications. It comes in two strengths, and your doctor determines the recommended dosage. To use Glyxambi, take it orally once a day, with or without food. However, you can consult your doctor if you experience severe side effects. Glyxambi comes with important warnings that include monitoring for pancreatitis, heart failure, ketoacidosis, and kidney function. It’s essential to discuss any allergies or skin reactions with your doctor before starting Glyxambi.

Additionally, if you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it’s close to the next dose. Don’t double up to compensate for a missed dose. You can also store it in a cool, dry place, away from moisture, and out of reach of children and pets. Glyxambi may interact with certain drugs and alcohol, so it’s crucial to inform your doctor of all medications and alcohol consumption. Alternatives to this medication are available, but you must consult your doctor before making any changes or even before you buy Glyxambi online from Canada.

What Are the Typical Dosages of Glyxambi?

Glyxambi is a combination medication used in the management of Type 2 diabetes, containing empagliflozin and linagliptin. Here’s a guide to the typical dosages used for this medication, but remember, always follow the dosage your doctor prescribes as it may differ based on your specific health needs.

Dosage for Type 2 Diabetes

• Starting Dosage: Typically, the initial dose is 10 mg of empagliflozin combined with 5 mg of linagliptin, taken once daily.
• Adjustment and Maximum Dosage: Depending on your response to the initial treatment, your doctor may increase your dosage. The maximum recommended dose is 25 mg of empagliflozin with 5 mg of linagliptin once daily.

Factors Influencing Dosage:

• Efficacy and Tolerance: Your doctor will prescribe the smallest dosage that effectively manages your blood sugar levels while minimizing side effects.
• Kidney Function: Since empagliflozin is cleared through the kidneys, your kidney function will also play a crucial role in determining the appropriate dosage.

[Note: Remember these recommendations may vary depending on person to person. Discuss it with your doctor, and they’ll customize your dosage accordingly.]

Here’s how to take Glyxambi tablets and you can also talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions or concerns regarding taking this medication:

• Your pharmacist gives you a guide. Read it before you start the medicine and each time you get more. If you have questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
• Take it by mouth, with or without food, usually once a day in the morning.
• The amount you take depends on your health and how you respond to the medication.
• Take the medicine regularly to get the best results. Remember to take it at the same time every day.
• Don’t crush or chew it with your teeth.
• If your condition doesn’t improve or worsen, let your doctor know. For example, tell your doctor if your blood sugar is too high or too low.

[Note: Your doctor will decide the right amount for you based on your condition, following guidelines and studies on the drug. They’ll adjust it as needed over time.]

Glyxambi is a medicine that combines two drugs. One of the drugs, empagliflozin, helps your kidneys prevent sugar from being reabsorbed into your body, lowering blood sugar by getting rid of extra sugar through urine. The other drug, linagliptin, works by blocking a protein called DPP-4 (Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4). This usually breaks down hormones that tell your body to make more insulin and produce less sugar. By blocking DPP-4, linagliptin helps your body produce more insulin and less sugar, lowering your blood sugar levels.

When considering treatment with Glyxambi for Type 2 diabetes, it’s important to discuss all aspects of your health with your doctor. Certain conditions and factors can impact how suitable Glyxambi is for you, and may require special monitoring or adjustment of treatment. Here are some key precautions to consider:

• Previous Reactions: If you have a history of severe allergic or skin reactions to empagliflozin or linagliptin, Glyxambi may not be the right choice for you. Your past experiences with these substances are significant factors in determining your suitability for this medication. Allergic reactions can be serious, and avoiding the medication is crucial if you are sensitive to any of its components.
• Lifestyle Factors: Discuss with your doctor if you consume large amounts of alcohol or if you have experienced genital infections (penis or vagina). Additionally, disclose if you are 65 years or older, follow a low-salt diet, have high cholesterol or triglycerides, or if you have any planned surgeries. These factors can influence the suitability and effectiveness of Glyxambi for your specific health condition.

If you forget to take Glyxambi, take it as soon as you remember, unless it’s the next day. In that case, skip the missed dose and take your next dose as usual. Don’t take two doses at once, as it may increase the chance of side effects like low blood sugar. To avoid missing doses, use a reminder like setting an alarm, using a timer, or using a reminder app on your phone.

[Note: If you have missed a dose of your medication and are unsure about when to take the next one, immediately consult your doctor or pharmacist.]

Only take the prescribed amount of Glyxambi as advised by your doctor. If you believe you have exceeded the recommended dose, promptly reach out to your healthcare provider or the nearest hospital emergency department or contact your regional Poison Control Centre, even in the absence of symptoms.

[Note: If you consumed more than the recommended dose, get medical help right away, or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222.]

Store Glyxambi 25 mg 5 mg tablets in a cool place (68°F to 77°F / 20°C to 25°C) and make sure to keep them in a tightly closed container. Don’t keep them in places like bathrooms where they might get damp or wet. Keep it away from the children and pets while storing.

[Note: Discuss with your healthcare professional about the proper disposal of any unused medicine and any questions you may have regarding its storage.]

What Drug Interactions Does Glyxambi Have?

Glyxambi, which combines empagliflozin and linagliptin, can interact with other medications, affecting how well it works or increasing the likelihood of side effects. It’s essential to inform your healthcare provider about all the medications, supplements, and over-the-counter products you are taking. Here are some common drug interactions to be aware of:

• Diuretics (Water Pills): If you take water pills (diuretics) along with Glyxambi, it can raise your chances of experiencing Glyxambi’s side effects. These side effects may involve low blood pressure and dehydration. Some examples of diuretics are:
  • Chlorthalidone
  • Furosemide (Lasix)
  • Spironolactone (Aldactone, Carospir)
  • Hydrochlorothiazide (Microzide)
• Sulfonylureas (Diabetes Medications): If you take sulfonylureas along with Glyxambi, it could increase the chance of having low blood sugar as a side effect. Examples of sulfonylureas include:
  • Glyburide (Diabeta, Glynase)
  • Glimepiride (Amaryl)
  • Glipizide (Glucotrol)
• Insulins: If you use insulin medications along with Glyxambi, it might increase the likelihood of having low blood sugar as a side effect. Examples of insulins include:
  • Insulin Aspart (Novolog)

  • Insulin Degludec (Tresiba)

What Are the Other Interactions of Glyxambi?

In addition to medications, Glyxambi can interact with certain vitamins, herbs, and dietary substances. Sharing all your supplements and dietary habits with your doctor can help avoid any unintended interactions and ensure that the treatment is safe and effective. Here are some potential non-drug interactions to consider:

• Glyxambi & Foods: No specific foods are known to interact with Glyxambi. If you’re unsure about what foods are okay to eat with Glyxambi, just ask your doctor.
• Glyxambi & Alcohol: Drinking a lot of alcohol, especially regularly, can increase the chances of experiencing side effects from Glyxambi. In particular, consuming large amounts of alcohol may heighten the risk of ketoacidosis, a rare but potentially life-threatening side effect of Glyxambi that results in a high level of acid in your blood. This risk is higher if you frequently consume alcohol. 

Moreover, it’s crucial to be aware that alcohol can lower your blood sugar, and Glyxambi also has a similar effect. Combining alcohol with the medication may increase the risk of dangerously low blood sugar levels, which, in rare cases, can be life-threatening. If you drink alcohol, discuss with your doctor the amount that is safe for you while taking Glyxambi.

[Note: This isn’t a complete list, and there could be other drugs that interact with Glyxambi. Make sure to tell your doctor about any prescription, over-the-counter medicines, and herbal products you’re taking.]
