  • with unsatisfactory glycemic control during monotherapy with metformin at the maximum tolerated dose;
  • in combination with other hypoglycemic drugs with unsatisfactory glycemic control due to their combined use with metformin;
  • in patients who have previously received combination therapy with empagliflozin and metformin in the form of separate drugs.

Adult patients with normal renal function (GFR ≥ 90 ml/min).
