Frequently asked questions

What is Linagliptina Pharmapath used for?+
Linagliptina Pharmapath contains linagliptin, a DPP‑4 inhibitor indicated for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It helps improve blood glucose control when used as part of a comprehensive diabetes management plan that includes diet and exercise.
How does linagliptin work?+
Linagliptin blocks the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase‑4, which normally breaks down the incretin hormones GLP‑1 and GIP. By inhibiting DPP‑4, linagliptin raises endogenous incretin levels, leading to glucose‑dependent insulin release and reduced glucagon secretion, thereby lowering blood glucose.
What is the usual dose of Linagliptina Pharmapath?+
