Pharmaceutical Name
Pharmacology
Linagliptin is used to enhance glycemic control in people with type 2 diabetes. Linagliptin is a DPP-4 (dipeptidyl peptidase-4) inhibitor, which is an enzyme that destroys the incretin hormones GLP-1 (glucagon like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide). Thus, linagliptin raises the concentrations of active incretin hormones in the blood, increasing the release of insulin from pancreatic beta () cells in a glucose-dependent manner while reducing glucagon production from pancreatic alpha () cells.
Dosage & Administration
Linagliptin 5 mg once daily. If added to metformin, the dose of metformin should be maintained and linagliptin administered concomitantly. When used in combination with a sulfonylurea, a lower dose of the sulphonylurea may be considered to reduce the risk of hypoglycaemia.
Patients with renal impairment: No dose adjustment required. Linagliptin can be taken with or without a meal at any time of the day.
Interaction
Linagliptin is a mild competitive and weak to moderate mechanism-based inhibitor of the CYP isozyme CYP3A4, however it has no effect on the other CYP isozymes. The risk of clinically important interactions with other medications is minimal, and linagliptin had no clinically relevant influence on the pharmacokinetics of metformin, glyburide, simvastatin, warfarin, digoxin, or oral contraceptives in clinical trials.
