GLYXAMBI is indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Empagliflozin, a component of GLYXAMBI, is indicated to reduce the risk of cardiovascular (CV) death in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus and established CV disease.
GLYXAMBI is not recommended for use to improve glycemic control in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. It may increase their risk of diabetic ketoacidosis. GLYXAMBI has not been studied in patients with a history of pancreatitis, and it is unknown if using GLYXAMBI increases the risk of developing pancreatitis in these patients.
Empagliflozin is not recommended for use to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus with an eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2. Empagliflozin is likely to be ineffective in this setting based upon its mechanism of action.
CONTRAINDICATIONS: Patients on dialysis; hypersensitivity to empagliflozin, linagliptin, or any of the excipients in GLYXAMBI, reactions such as anaphylaxis, angioedema, exfoliative skin conditions, urticaria, or bronchial hyperreactivity have occurred.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Diabetic Ketoacidosis in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and Other Ketoacidosis: Empagliflozin increases the risk of life-threatening ketoacidosis in patients with type 1 diabetes and fatal ketoacidosis has occurred with empagliflozin. Type 2 diabetes and pancreatic disorders are also risk factors for ketoacidosis and fatal events of ketoacidosis have been reported in patients with type 2 diabetes using empagliflozin. Precipitating conditions for diabetic ketoacidosis or other ketoacidosis include under-insulinization due to insulin dose reduction or missed insulin doses, acute febrile illness, reduced caloric intake, ketogenic diet, surgery, volume depletion, and alcohol abuse. Signs and symptoms of diabetic ketoacidosis are consistent with dehydration and severe metabolic acidosis and include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, generalized malaise, and shortness of breath. Assess patients who present with signs and symptoms of metabolic ketoacidosis, regardless of blood glucose levels. If suspected, discontinue GLYXAMBI, treat promptly and monitor for resolution before restarting. Consider ketone monitoring in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus as well as in others at risk for ketoacidosis. Withhold GLYXAMBI in clinical situations known to predispose to ketoacidosis and resume when clinically stable. Educate all patients on the signs and symptoms of ketoacidosis and instruct patients to discontinue GLYXAMBI and seek medical attention immediately if signs and symptoms occur.
Pancreatitis: Acute pancreatitis, including fatal pancreatitis, has been reported in patients taking linagliptin. Take careful notice of potential signs and symptoms of pancreatitis and, if suspected, promptly discontinue GLYXAMBI and initiate appropriate management. It is unknown whether patients with a history of pancreatitis are at increased risk for the development of pancreatitis while using GLYXAMBI.
Volume Depletion: Empagliflozin can cause intravascular volume depletion which may manifest as symptomatic hypotension or acute transient changes in creatinine may occur. Acute kidney injury requiring hospitalization and dialysis has been reported in patients with type 2 diabetes receiving SGLT2 inhibitors, including empagliflozin. Before initiating GLYXAMBI, assess and correct volume status and renal function in the elderly, and in patients with impaired renal function (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2) impairment, low systolic blood pressure, elderly patients or patients on loop diuretics. In patients with volume depletion, correct this condition. After initiating, monitor for signs and symptoms of volume depletion and renal function hypotension.
Urosepsis and Pyelonephritis: Serious urinary tract infections, including urosepsis and pyelonephritis requiring hospitalization, have been identified in patients receiving empagliflozin. Treatment with empagliflozin increases the risk for urinary tract infections. Evaluate for signs and symptoms of urinary tract infections and treat promptly.
Hypoglycemia: The use of GLYXAMBI in combination with insulin or insulin secretagogues can increase the risk of hypoglycemia. A lower dose of insulin or the insulin secretagogue may be required.
Necrotizing Fasciitis of the Perineum (Fournier’s Gangrene): Serious, life-threatening cases requiring surgical intervention have occurred in both females and males. Serious outcomes have included hospitalization, multiple surgeries, and death. Assess patients presenting with pain or tenderness, erythema, or swelling in the genital or perineal area, along with fever or malaise. If suspected, institute prompt treatment and discontinue GLYXAMBI.
Genital Mycotic Infections: Empagliflozin increases the risk for genital mycotic infections, especially in patients with prior infections. Monitor and treat as appropriate.
Lower Limb Amputation: Lower limb amputations have been observed in patients with chronic kidney disease taking empagliflozin. GLYXAMBI is not indicated for the treatment of chronic kidney disease. Peripheral artery disease, and diabetic foot infection (including osteomyelitis), were the most common precipitating medical events leading to the need for an amputation. The risk of amputation was highest in patients with a baseline history of diabetic foot, peripheral artery disease (including previous amputation) or diabetes. Counsel patients receiving GLYXAMBI about the importance of routine preventative foot care and monitor for signs and symptoms of diabetic foot infection (including osteomyelitis), new pain or tenderness, sores or ulcers involving the lower limbs, and institute appropriate treatment.
Hypersensitivity Reactions: Serious hypersensitivity reactions have occurred with linagliptin (anaphylaxis, angioedema, and exfoliative skin conditions) and empagliflozin (angioedema). If hypersensitivity reactions occur, discontinue GLYXAMBI, treat promptly, and monitor until signs and symptoms resolve. Use caution in a patient with a history of angioedema to another DPP-4 inhibitor because it is unknown whether such patients will be predisposed to angioedema with GLYXAMBI.
Severe and Disabling Arthralgia: Severe and disabling arthralgia has been reported in patients taking linagliptin. Consider as a possible cause for severe joint pain and discontinue GLYXAMBI, if appropriate.
Bullous Pemphigoid: There have been reports of bullous pemphigoid requiring hospitalization. Tell patients to report development of blisters or erosions. If bullous pemphigoid is suspected, discontinue GLYXAMBI.
Heart Failure: Heart failure has been observed with two other members of the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor class. Consider risks and benefits of GLYXAMBI in patients at risk for heart failure, such as those with a prior history of heart failure and a history of renal impairment. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms. Advise patients of the symptoms of heart failure and to immediately report such symptoms. If heart failure develops, consider discontinuation of GLYXAMBI.
MOST COMMON ADVERSE REACTIONS (≥5%): urinary tract infections, nasopharyngitis, and upper respiratory tract infections.
DRUG INTERACTIONS
Diuretics: Coadministration of empagliflozin with diuretics may enhance the potential for volume depletion. Monitor for signs and symptoms.
Lithium: Concomitant use with lithium may decrease serum lithium concentrations. Monitor more frequently during GLYXAMBI initiation and dosage changes.
Inducers of P-glycoprotein or CYP3A4 Enzymes: The efficacy of linagliptin may be reduced when administered in combination with a strong P-gp or CYP3A4 inducer. Alternative treatments should be used.
USE IN SPECIAL POPULATIONS
Pregnancy: GLYXAMBI is not recommended during the second and third trimesters.
Lactation: GLYXAMBI is not recommended while breastfeeding.
Geriatric Use: GLYXAMBI is expected to have diminished efficacy in elderly patients with renal impairment. Assess renal function more frequently in elderly patients. The incidence of volume depletion-related adverse reactions and urinary tract infections increased in patients ≥75 years treated with empagliflozin.

JARDIANCE is not recommended for use to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with an eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m2. JARDIANCE is likely to be ineffective in this setting based upon its mechanism of action.
JARDIANCE is not recommended for the treatment of chronic kidney disease in patients with polycystic kidney disease or patients requiring or with a recent history of intravenous immunosuppressive therapy or greater than 45 mg of prednisone or equivalent for kidney disease. JARDIANCE is not expected to be effective in these populations.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR JARDIANCE
CONTRAINDICATIONS: Hypersensitivity to empagliflozin or any of the excipients in JARDIANCE, reactions such as angioedema have occurred.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Diabetic Ketoacidosis in Patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and Other Ketoacidosis: JARDIANCE increases the risk of life-threatening ketoacidosis in patients with type 1 diabetes and fatal ketoacidosis has occurred with JARDIANCE. Type 2 diabetes and pancreatic disorders are also risk factors for ketoacidosis and fatal events of ketoacidosis have been reported in patients with type 2 diabetes using JARDIANCE. Precipitating conditions for diabetic ketoacidosis or other ketoacidosis include under-insulinization due to insulin dose reduction or missed insulin doses, acute febrile illness, reduced caloric intake, ketogenic diet, surgery, volume depletion, and alcohol abuse. Signs and symptoms of diabetic ketoacidosis are consistent with dehydration and severe metabolic acidosis and include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, generalized malaise, and shortness of breath. Assess patients who present with signs and symptoms of metabolic ketoacidosis, regardless of blood glucose levels. If suspected, discontinue JARDIANCE, treat promptly and monitor for resolution before restarting.
