What does the Glyxambi label say about a missed dose?

Section 2.5 says: "If a dose is missed, instruct patients to take the dose as soon as possible. Advise patients not to double up the next dose."

The Medication Guide says: "If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take the medicine at the next regularly scheduled time. Do not take two doses of GLYXAMBI at the same time."

Do the two parts of Glyxambi have different rules?

No. Glyxambi is one tablet holding empagliflozin (the Jardiance ingredient) and linagliptin (the Tradjenta ingredient), and it has one missed-dose rule. The Jardiance and Tradjenta labels say much the same thing.
