Question: is jardiance the same as farxiga?
Answer: Jardiance. Farxiga and Jardiance (empagliflozin) are both in the same class of medications: sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. This means they work in the same way to treat type 2 diabetes. Both Farxiga and Jardiance are FDA-approved to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes.
