Drugs used in diabetes

Therapeutic indication

Eperzan is indicated for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults to improve glycaemic control as:

Monotherapy

When diet and exercise alone do not provide adequate glycaemic control in patients for whom use of metformin is considered inappropriate due to contraindications or intolerance.

Add-on combination therapy

In combination with other glucose-lowering medicinal products including basal insulin, when these, together with diet and exercise, do not provide adequate glycaemic control (see section 4.4 and 5.1 for available data on different combinations).
