Product Benefits

• Intensive Glycemic Control: Combines a fixed dose of Linagliptin (2.5mg) with a higher strength of Metformin (850mg) for patients requiring more robust control of their blood glucose levels.

• Targeted Liver Support: The 850mg Metformin component significantly inhibits hepatic glucose production, helping to lower elevated fasting blood sugar levels effectively.

• Mealtime Glucose Management: Linagliptin enhances the body's natural incretin hormones, which stimulate insulin release from the pancreas specifically after eating, reducing post-meal sugar spikes.²

• Increased Insulin Sensitivity: Helps peripheral tissues (like muscles) better absorb and utilize glucose, directly addressing the core issue of insulin resistance in Type 2 diabetes.

• Cardiovascular & Renal Protection: Consistent use helps reach HbA1c targets, which is proven to reduce the risk of long-term diabetes-related complications like heart disease, kidney failure, and vision loss.

• Weight Neutral Profile: Unlike many other antidiabetic classes, this combination does not typically cause weight gain, making it an excellent choice for patients managing their BMI.³

• Low Hypoglycemia Risk: When used alone, this combination has a very low risk of causing "hypos" (dangerously low blood sugar) because Linagliptin’s action is glucose-dependent.

• Convenient Combo Pill: Replaces two separate medications with one single tablet, simplifying the daily treatment regimen and improving patient adherence.

Usage & Storage Instructions

• Dosage: Usually taken twice daily, or as strictly directed by your physician.

• Administration: Must be taken with meals to significantly reduce the risk of stomach upset, nausea, or diarrhea commonly associated with Metformin.⁴

• Storage: Store in a dry, cool place below ⁵$30^{\circ}\text{C}$.⁶ Keep the strip protected from light.

Important Safety Note: If you experience extreme fatigue, muscle pain, or difficulty breathing, stop use and contact a doctor immediately, as these may be signs of Lactic Acidosis. Periodic monitoring of kidney function (eGFR) and Vitamin B12 levels is recommended for long-term users.⁷
