About this medicine
Trajenta 5 mg Tablet is an oral anti diabetic medicine, specifically designed to manage blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
It is recommended when dietary changes, physical activity, and previous therapy fail to maintain adequate blood glucose levels. Trajenta 5 mg Tablet can be safely combined with other antidiabetic medications, including insulin, for enhanced glycemic control.
Type 2 diabetes can lead to serious complications, including cardiovascular disease such as heart attack and stroke, as well as kidney damage, nerve damage, vision problems, slow wound healing, etc.
Linagliptin, the active ingredient in Trajenta 5 mg Tablet, targets the underlying issues in type 2 diabetes by enhancing the body's natural insulin response after meals, thereby reducing the risk of these potentially debilitating symptoms.
It is important to note that Trajenta 5 mg Tablet is not for treating Type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. Always consult a healthcare provider before starting this medication to ensure it fits your specific health needs.

The tablet should be swallowed whole with water and should not be split, crushed, or chewed. Trajenta 5 mg Tablet can be administered with or without food. Remember to follow any accompanying diet plan and do not stop taking it suddenly without talking to your doctor, as this could cause your blood sugar to spike.
