Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?
A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Trajenta 5 Tablet. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.
All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.
Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.
Composition of Trajenta 5 Tablet
Trajenta 5 Tablet contains Linagliptin (5mg). It belongs to the DPP-4 inhibitor (gliptin) class of medicines.
Uses of Trajenta 5 Tablet
- Type 2 diabetes mellitus: used to improve blood sugar control in adults
- Exercise
Benefits of Trajenta 5 Tablet
- In Type 2 diabetes
- Trajenta strengthens the body's own after-meal insulin response, so sugar spikes after eating are smaller. It does this without pushing sugar too low on its own and without causing weight gain.
How Trajenta 5 Tablet works
Linagliptin is a DPP-4 inhibitor that increases incretin hormones (GLP-1, GIP) by preventing their breakdown. This increases insulin release in a glucose-dependent manner and reduces glucagon secretion, lowering blood glucose with a low risk of hypoglycaemia when used alone.
How to take Trajenta 5 Tablet
Oral tablet: typically 1 tablet (5 mg) once daily, with or without food, at the same time each day. Swallow whole with water; continue diet and exercise as advised. Dose adjustments may be needed when used with insulin or sulfonylureas to reduce hypoglycaemia risk.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Missed dose and overdose
If you miss a dose
If you miss a dose of Trajenta 5mg Tablet, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.
If you take too much
An overdose of this medicine may cause low blood sugar, particularly if you also take other diabetes medicines. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
