se of an antidiabetic drug (Empagliflozin) to lower the blood level of 1,5-anhydroglucitol in patients deficient in the glucose-6-phosphate transporter (GSD1b) and the phosphatase G6PC3, both of the endoplasmic reticulum, to treat their recurrent infections by normalizing their blood neutrophil counts. Neutrophils are the most abundant white blood cells in our blood that are essential to help fighting infections. 1,5-anhydroglucitol is a sugar derivative with no known function.
