Linapil Tablet 10

Linapil Tablet is used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. It helps control blood sugar levels by increasing incretin hormone activity, which enhances glucose-dependent insulin secretion and reduces glucagon release. This medication is typically prescribed along with diet and exercise, either alone or in combination with other antidiabetic medicines, when blood sugar levels are not adequately controlled.

1. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew it.
2. Ensure consistency by taking the tablet at the same time each day.
3. Take the tablet in the dosage and frequency recommended by your doctor. Never exceed the dose prescribed by your doctor.

Linapil Tablet is taken orally.

Linapil Tablet contains linagliptin (5 mg), which works on your body in the following ways:

• Linagliptin blocks an enzyme called DPP-4 in your body. This enzyme normally breaks down hormones called incretins.
• Incretins help stimulate your pancreas to release more insulin when your blood sugar levels are high, especially after meals, thereby lowering the blood glucose levels.
• Incretins also help reduce the amount of glucose produced by your liver.

1. Store the medicine at room temperature, ideally below 25°C.
2. Keep the product in a tightly sealed container to protect it from moisture.
3. Avoid exposing the tablet to excessive heat or direct sunlight.
4. Always keep this medicine out of the reach of children and pets.
5. Ensure you use the medicine before its expiry date.

• Regular physical activity can help manage blood sugar levels. Try to include at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise, such as brisk walking, in your daily routine.
• Follow a balanced diet rich in fibre, lean proteins, and whole grains. Limit your intake of processed foods and beverages high in sugar, as these can spike your blood sugar levels.
