Linagliptin

Linagliptin is a medication used to help manage type 2 diabetes. It works by increasing the levels of natural hormones called incretins, which help the body produce more insulin when blood sugar is high and reduce the amount of sugar the liver releases. This helps lower blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. Linagliptin is usually taken once daily and is often prescribed alongside other diabetes medications, diet, and exercise to keep blood sugar controlled. It’s important to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions when using this medication.
