Ardance 10 mg is a medication that contains Empagliflozin, which is a Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) Inhibitor. It is primarily used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus by helping lower blood sugar levels. Empagliflozin works by preventing the kidneys from reabsorbing glucose back into the bloodstream, leading to the excretion of excess glucose through urine. This helps in controlling blood sugar levels, especially when combined with diet and exercise. Ardance is also used to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, such as heart failure or cardiovascular death, in patients with type 2 diabetes and existing cardiovascular disease. The typical starting dose is 10 mg once daily, and depending on individual response, the dosage may be increased to 25 mg. It is important to take this medication under the guidance of a healthcare provider, as it can cause side effects like urinary tract infections, dehydration, and genital fungal infections. Regular monitoring of kidney function is recommended during treatment.
