How Empha-S Tablet works

Empha-S 25 Tablet is a combination of two medicines, empagliflozin and sitagliptin, which help control blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. Empagliflozin works by helping the kidneys remove extra sugar from the body through urine. Sitagliptin helps the body release more insulin when blood sugar is high and reduces the amount of sugar made by the liver. By working in different ways, these two medicines complement each other and provide better blood sugar control than either medicine alone.

Diabetes Ireland is delighted to hear of the Harvard success and congratulate Professor Melton and colleagues on figuring out the complex series of steps necessary to turn stem cells into beta cells. Hopefully, they can negotiate the regulations for mass production so that an abundant supply of beta cells is available an new and innovative methods will be developed to cure/treat Type 1 diabetes. Type I diabetes is an autoimmune condition whereby the body kills off its own beta (insulin producing) cells resulting in the need for daily insulin administration through the skin. Replacing beta cells in the first step towards a cure, but the replaced beta cells need to be protected from the body?s autoimmune response. This means protecting them in a coating or taking drugs to prevent the response (possible worse side effects than diabetes).
