Product Description
TRAJENTA DUO 850mg is a fixed-dose combination medication containing Metformin and Linagliptin. Metformin is an oral anti-diabetic medication that helps control blood sugar levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Linagliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor that helps regulate blood sugar levels by increasing insulin release and decreasing the production of glucose. This combination is used to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes when diet and exercise alone do not provide adequate control. TRAJENTA DUO 850mg works by reducing insulin resistance and enhancing the secretion of insulin. It is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular exercise, while taking this medication.
