What does it do?

Empagliflozin 2L-Proline is a diabetes treatment ingredient belonging to the SGLT2 inhibitor class. This ingredient is used to block the reabsorption of glucose in the kidneys to help control blood glucose levels.

This ingredient inhibits the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) in the kidneys, increasing the excretion of glucose in urine. As a result, it lowers the concentration of glucose in the blood and helps with blood sugar control.
