Linagliptin
Generic alternative to Tradjenta
Linagliptin is an oral diabetes medicine that helps control blood sugar levels. It works by regulating the levels of insulin your body produces after eating. Linagliptin is used to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is sometimes used in combination with other diabetes medications, but is not for treating type 1 diabetes.
How is this medication used?
Take linagliptin exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The usual dosage is one tablet taken once daily, with or without food. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet. Swallow it whole. Check your blood sugar levels regularly as directed by your healthcare provider.
What are the possible side effects?
Common side effects of linagliptin include stuffy or runny nose, sore throat, cough, diarrhea, and weight gain. Serious side effects can include pancreatitis, severe allergic reactions, and joint pain. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience symptoms of pancreatitis, such as severe and persistent stomach pain.
What are the potential interactions?
Linagliptin may interact with other medications, which can affect how it works or increase the risk of serious side effects. Medications such as rifampin, HIV/AIDS medications, and certain antibiotics may impact linagliptin levels in the blood. Ensure that all your healthcare providers are aware of all medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, to prevent adverse interactions.
