摘要：

Introduction: Most patients with type 2 diabetes, who receive monotherapy, are unable to maintain glucose levels with the progress of disease. Therefore, combination therapy with two or more antidiabetic agents of different classes is highly desired. Sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors improve glycemic control through increasing urinary glucose excretion, which is independent of beta-cell function. In addition, they are generally well tolerated and associated with a low risk of hypoglycaemia. SGLT2 inhibitors as add-on therapy to metformin have an additive effect on glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes, and fixed-dose tablet is likely to reduce pill burden and then improve patients' adherence. Areas covered: This article reviews empagliflozin/metformin combination therapy for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The clinical efficacy and tolerability of empagliflozin/metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes are discussed based on the available literature. Expert opinion: It was found that empagliflozin/metformin combination therapy could significantly improve glycemic control, body weight and blood pressure with a low risk of hypoglycaemia. In addition, the empagliflozin/metformin fixed-dose tablets, supported by bioequivalence studies, could reduce pill burden to further achieve the improved patients' adherence, better glycemic control and optimized cost-effectiveness.
