Trajenta Duo 2.5mg/1000mg Tablet contains two active ingredients:

• Linagliptin (2.5 mg): As a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, linagliptin increases the levels of hormones that stimulate insulin release when your blood sugar is high. It also reduces the secretion of glucagon, a hormone that raises blood sugar levels. This dual action helps to lower your blood glucose.

• Metformin (1000 mg): This ingredient acts in three ways to control blood sugar. Firstly, it decreases the production of glucose in your liver. Secondly, it reduces the absorption of glucose from food in your intestines. Finally, metformin improves insulin sensitivity by increasing glucose uptake in your muscles. By doing so, it reduces both fasting and post-meal blood sugar levels.
