Product introduction

Empacon 25mg Tablet can be taken with or without food at any time of day, but you should try to take it at the same time every day. Your doctor will decide the dose. Do not stop taking it without asking your doctor. If you do, your blood sugar levels may increase, putting you at risk of serious complications like kidney damage and blindness. This medicine is only part of a treatment program that should include a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight reduction, as your doctor advises.

The most common side effects of this medicine are urinary tract infections and female genital mycotic infections (vaginal yeast infections). It may cause the body to lose too much water. Hence, drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated and to overcome the medicine's side effects. Some people may develop fungal infections in the genital area. Maintaining good hygiene can help prevent this.

Before taking this medicine, inform your doctor if you have any kidney or liver problems, a urinary tract infection, or are taking water pills (diuretics). Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor before taking it. Avoid excessive alcohol intake while taking it, as this may increase the risk of developing some side effects. Monitor your blood sugar levels regularly while taking this medicine.
