Introduction
Voreta Plus combines Empagliflozin (SGLT2 inhibitor) and Metformin (if confirmed in formulation) to control high blood sugar in Type 2 diabetes patients. It helps remove excess glucose via urine while improving insulin sensitivity, making it effective for sugar control and cardiovascular protection.
