Brief Summary

Study Objective To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Empagliflozin with or without metformin in patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus in the Pakistani population.

Study design Open-label, prospective, observational, single arm, multi-center, post-marketing surveillance study.

Sample size The estimated sample size will be n=156. Duration of study 12 months (data lock point will be completion of 6 months' follow-up from the time of last patient's enrollment date) Safety Assessment: Patient will be monitored for Hypoglycemia, Dehydration, Hypotension, Urinary Tract Infections, Fungal Infections, Nausea, Vomiting, Diarrhea, Abdominal Discomfort, Flatulence, Asthenia, Indigestion and Other side effects (if any).

Follow up visits: After recruitment, patient is supposed to have three visits for follow-ups.

Visit 1: 4 to 6 weeks of initiation of therapy. Visit 02: At 12 weeks of initiation of therapy. Visit 03: At 24 weeks of initiation of therapy.

LABORATORY TESTING:

Reputable Lab is considered for laboratory testing of diabetes patients i.e. HbA1C%, FBG, RFT and urine R/E. The certified clinical lab will be responsible for receiving and analyzing clinical sample. Patients will have special discount of upto 50% for study related laboratory investigations.

Where in Urine Routine Examination (Urine R/E), we consider as follows:

* Visual Examination:

* Urine color: Normal (Yellow), Pale Yellow, Dark Yellow, Brown, Red or Pink or any other.

* Urine clarity: Clear, slightly Cloudy, cloudy or turbidity

* Chemical Examination:

* Specific gravity

* pH

* Bilirubin

* Urobilinogen

* Protein

* Ketone

* Leukocyte Esterase

* Microscopic Examination:

* Red Blood Cells:

* Epithelial Cells:

* Amorphous:

* Pus Cells

* Bacteria

* Yeast

* Casts

* Crystals

Where in Renal Function Test (RFT), we consider as follows:

* Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN): mg/dL

* Serum Creatinine: mg/dL

* Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR): mL/min/1.73 m2
