Description
Indication & Scope
Trajenta® is a prescription dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It may be used as monotherapy in patients who cannot tolerate metformin or for whom metformin is contraindicated, and in combination with other antihyperglycemic agents such as metformin or metformin plus a sulfonylurea.
- Mechanism: Linagliptin selectively inhibits DPP-4, increasing endogenous incretin hormones (GLP-1 and GIP), thereby enhancing glucose-dependent insulin secretion and reducing glucagon release.
- Drug class: DPP-4 inhibitor.
- Clinical use: Glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus as monotherapy or combination therapy.
