Linagliptin is a DPP‑4 inhibitor used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, acting on the incretin pathway to improve blood‑glucose control.

- Type 2 diabetes mellitus: improves glycaemic control when added to diet, exercise and other antidiabetic therapies.

Linagliptin is generally well tolerated, but adverse reactions can occur.

Common Side Effects: - Nasopharyngitis: mild inflammation of the nasal passages and throat. - Headache: transient, mild to moderate intensity. - Upper respiratory tract infection: symptoms of cough, sore throat, or congestion. - Dizziness: occasional light‑headed sensation.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Pancreatitis: severe abdominal pain requiring immediate medical attention. - Severe hypersensitivity reactions: including rash, angioedema, or anaphylaxis. - Hepatic injury: elevated liver enzymes or jaundice. - Bullous pemphigoid: rare autoimmune skin disorder presenting with blistering lesions.

When prescribing Linagliptin, clinicians should consider several safety aspects.

- Renal function monitoring: assess baseline renal status, although dose adjustment is not required. - Hepatic impairment: use with caution in patients with liver disease. - Cardiovascular disease: monitor for any worsening of heart failure symptoms. - Elderly patients: start at the recommended dose and observe for increased sensitivity to side effects. - Drug interactions: review concomitant medications for potential additive effects. - Store at ambient temperature: keep below 25 °C, retain in original packaging, and protect from moisture.

Linagliptin may interact with other medicines, requiring attention to the level of risk.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole): may increase linagliptin exposure and risk of adverse effects. - Co‑administration with insulin: can potentiate hypoglycaemia; dose adjustment may be needed.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Sulfonylureas: increased risk of hypoglycaemia; monitor blood glucose. - Diuretics: may affect renal clearance of linagliptin; observe renal function. - NSAIDs: may raise the likelihood of fluid retention or edema; watch for signs of heart failure.
