We didn’t find a savings card or cash price from Trijardy XR’s maker. Ask the pharmacy for Trijardy XR’s cash price. With insurance, ask what your plan charges.

Authorized genericNot sold

There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Trijardy XR itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Trijardy XR is the only choice; ask the pharmacy for its cash price, or your plan what it charges.

Regular genericNot sold

No generic is sold yet. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, ask the pharmacy for Trijardy XR’s cash price, or your plan what it charges.

What it’s used for

What the FDA label says

TRIJARDY XR is a combination of empagliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, linagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, and metformin hydrochloride (HCl), a biguanide, indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Empagliflozin is indicated to reduce the risk of cardiovascular (CV) death in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus and established CV disease.

Limitations of Use

  • Not recommended for use to improve glycemic control in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. It may increase the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis in these patients.
