LINABITE M 5/500 TAB — Uses, Dosage & Benefits

Linagliptin 5 mg + Metformin 500 mg (as Metformin Hydrochloride)

Linagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that increases incretin hormones (GLP-1, GIP), leading to increased insulin release and reduced glucagon in a glucose-dependent manner. Metformin decreases hepatic glucose production and improves peripheral insulin sensitivity, thereby lowering blood glucose.

Oral tablet; take exactly as prescribed. Usually taken with meals to reduce stomach upset; swallow whole with water. Do not crush/chew; follow dosing schedule advised by doctor and monitor blood glucose regularly.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
