Linajen Linagliptin 5mg 30 Tablets

Linajen 5 mg is an oral antihyperglycemic medication containing the active ingredient Linagliptin (5 mg). It belongs to the class of medicines known as dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors. It is used alongside diet and exercise to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

As a DPP-4 inhibitor, it works by blocking the enzyme that breaks down “incretin” hormones. These natural hormones signal the pancreas to increase insulin production and tell the liver to produce less sugar, especially after meals. By extending the activity of these hormones, Linajen helps maintain stable blood glucose levels throughout the day.

Key Benefits:

– Effective Glycemic Control

– Renal-Friendly Profile

– Low Hypoglycemia Risk

CAUTION: This is a prescription-only medication. It should be used for oral use only as directed by a healthcare professional. Common side effects may include a stuffy or runny nose, sore throat, or cough. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, which may be a sign of pancreatitis.
