How it works

Trajenta Duo 2.5mg/1000mg Tablet is a combination of two antidiabetic medicines: Metformin and Linagliptin. Metformin is an antidiabetic medication (biguanide). It works by lowering the glucose production in the liver, delaying glucose absorption from the intestines and increasing the body's sensitivity to insulin. Linagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor which works by increasing the release of insulin from the pancreas and decreasing the hormones that raise blood sugar levels. This reduces both fasting and postmeal sugar levels. Together, they provide better control of blood sugar.Trajenta Duo 2.5mg/1000mg Tablet is a combination of two antidiabetic medicines: Metformin and Linagliptin.
