What is Synjardy XR and how does it work?
Synjardy XR is an FDA-approved combination drug containing metformin and empagliflozin, prescribed alongside diet and exercise to manage high blood sugar in adults with Type 2 diabetes. By improving blood sugar control, it can help reduce the risk of serious diabetes-related complications like nerve damage, vision loss, kidney problems, and cardiovascular events. It works through three main actions: it helps restore the body's sensitivity to insulin, decreases the amount of sugar produced by the liver, and increases the removal of excess sugar through the kidneys.
How does Synjardy differ from Synjardy XR?
Both Synjardy and Synjardy XR contain the same active ingredients, metformin and empagliflozin, and are FDA-approved for Type 2 diabetes. The key difference lies in their release formulations and dosing schedules. Synjardy is an immediate-release tablet taken twice daily. Synjardy XR is an extended-release formulation designed to be taken just once daily, which may offer greater convenience for some patients.
