Jentadueto
Jentadueto is a prescription medication used in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is a combination of two active ingredients, linagliptin and metformin. Linagliptin works by increasing the levels of incretins to raise insulin release and decrease glucagon levels in the circulation in a glucose-dependent manner, while metformin decreases glucose production by the liver and its absorption in the intestines.
How is this medication used?
Jentadueto is taken orally, usually twice a day with meals to reduce the risk of an upset stomach. It's important to follow the dosage prescribed by your healthcare provider, as it may vary based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Do not crush or chew the tablets.
What are the possible side effects?
Possible side effects of Jentadueto include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, and loss of appetite. Rare but serious side effects can include lactic acidosis, a condition caused by too much lactic acid in the blood, and pancreatitis. If you experience symptoms of hypoglycemia such as dizziness, shakiness, or sweating, contact your healthcare provider.
What are the potential interactions?
Jentadueto can interact with certain medications such as insulin or sulphonylureas, leading to an increased risk of hypoglycemia. It may also interact with diuretics, steroids, thyroid products, and other drugs that can affect blood sugar levels. Alcohol should be limited as it can increase the risk of lactic acidosis. Always inform your healthcare provider about all the medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal products.
