LINALIGLIP M 5/500

Linagliptin 5mg and Metformin Hydrochloride (SR) 500mg

LINALIGLIP M 5/500 combination of Linagliptin 5mg and Metformin Hydrochloride (SR) 500mg is a combination medication used for the effective management of type 2 diabetes. This combination leverages the complementary mechanisms of two powerful antidiabetic agents to help control blood glucose levels, offering a comprehensive approach to diabetes management.

Uses of Linagliptin and Metformin Hydrochloride (SR) :

• Blood Sugar Control: Helps lower blood glucose levels in adults with type 2 diabetes.
• Improvement in Glycemic Control: Reduces both fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels.
• Complementary Therapy: Ideal for patients not adequately controlled on Metformin alone.
• Long-Term Diabetes Management: Aids in reducing the risk of diabetes-related complications.

How Linagliptin and Metformin Hydrochloride (SR) Work :

• Linagliptin: A dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor that increases incretin levels, which help increase insulin release and decrease glucagon levels in the bloodstream.
• Metformin Hydrochloride (SR): A biguanide that decreases hepatic glucose production and improves insulin sensitivity, providing sustained blood glucose control.

Dosage and Administration :

• Standard Dosage: The typical dose is one LINALIGLIP M 5/500 tablet taken once or twice daily, with meals to reduce gastrointestinal side effects.
• Instructions for Use: Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not crush or chew the tablet as it is designed for extended release.
• Missed Dose: If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.

Side Effects :

• Common Side Effects: These may include gastrointestinal issues such as nausea, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, and flatulence.
• Serious Side Effects: Rare but serious side effects can include lactic acidosis, severe hypoglycemia, and allergic reactions. Seek medical attention if you experience symptoms such as severe abdominal pain, difficulty breathing, or swelling.
• Managing Side Effects: Taking the medication with food can help minimize gastrointestinal side effects. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels and kidney function is recommended.

Precautions and Warnings :

• Allergic Reactions: Do not use LINALIGLIP M 5/500 if you have a known allergy to Linagliptin, Metformin, or any of the ingredients.
• Medical Conditions: Inform your doctor if you have a history of kidney or liver disease, heart failure, or a history of lactic acidosis.
• Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your healthcare provider before using this medication if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

Drug Interactions :

• Other Antidiabetic Medications: Use caution when combining with other antidiabetic drugs to avoid hypoglycemia.
• Diuretics and NSAIDs: May increase the risk of kidney problems when used with Metformin.
• Alcohol: Limit alcohol intake as it can increase the risk of lactic acidosis with Metformin.

Storage and Handling :
