Lijenta-M

Linagliptin & Metformin Hydrochloride
2.5/500 mg, 2.5/850 mg & 2.5/1000 mg Tablet
Description:

Lijenta-M is a combination of linagliptin and Metformin Hydrochloride with complementary mechanism of action to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Linagliptin is an inhibitor of DPP-4 (dipeptidyl peptidase-4), an enzyme that degrades the incretin hormones GLP-1 (glucagon like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide). Thus, Linagliptin increases the concentrations of active incretin hormones, stimulating the release of insulin from pancreatic beta cells in a glucose-dependent manner and decreasing the secretion of glucagon from pancreatic alpha cells in the circulation.
Metformin Hydrochloride is a biguanide type oral antihyperglycemic drug used in the management of type 2 diabetes. It lowers both basal and postprandial plasma glucose. Its mechanism of action is different from those of sulfonylureas and it does not produce hypoglycemia. Metformin decreases hepatic glucose production, decreases intestinal absorption of glucose and improves insulin sensitivity by an increase in peripheral glucose uptake and utilization.
