Synjardy (empagliflozin / metformin) for Diabetes, Type 2 "THIS DRUG IS TRASH used this drug for over 2 years this company Eli Lilly should be investigated they put something in the that drug to makes you crave for sugar. My AC1 went up to 11, it was at 9 when I started. Then started Xigduo for the past 3 months no craving for sugar everything went down"

Synjardy (empagliflozin / metformin) for Diabetes, Type 2 "I take it along with Metformin ER and Ozempic. My A1c is in the low 6's but I'm not 100% sure which one helps the most though Ozempic led to a 30lb weight loss which I'm sure was a big factor. Unfortunately, the Synjardy savings card went from paying $70 to only $40 this past month so my out of pocket with insurance went from $30 to $60 per month. I may stop taking it soon to see it's real impact since their "pays up to $175 per month" card only covers $40!"

For Diabetes, Type 2 "I was prescribed empagliflozin for my type 2 diabetes. Within a month I developed hydronephrosis, which is a serious UTI and acute kidney injury. I was hospitalized for 2 weeks for IV antibiotics. I had no outward signs of a UTI before my hospitalization. I was within a day of dying thanks to this drug. This drug should be removed from the market."
