Linagliptin 5mg Dapagliflozin 10mg Tablets
Linagliptin is a DPP-4 medicine that obstructs increases in incretin hormone levels. Incretin hormones are hormones that help regulate blood sugar by stimulating insulin secretion around meals and reducing glucagon secretion. Linagliptin is often prescribed to patients with type 2 diabetes as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve blood sugar control. On the other hand, dapagliflozin is an obstruction of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2). It works by blocking glucose assimilation in the kidneys allowing more glucose to be absorbed from the blood and lowering blood sugar levels. Dapagliflozin is also beneficial for weight loss and lowering blood pressure, making it especially useful for type 2 diabetics with heart problems.
How Does Dapagliflozin + Linagliptin work?
Dapagliflozin + Linagliptin is a mixture of two antidiabetic drugs. Dapagliflozin works by reducing blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 diabetes by excreting excess sugar from the body through urine. Linagliptin works by increasing the levels of some natural substances that decrease blood sugar when it is high.
Use Of Dapagliflozin + Linagliptin Medicine
Linagliptin functions through the blocking of DPP-4, an enzyme that catalyzes the breakdown of a hormone called incretin. Incretins contribute to increasing the formation of insulin and decreasing glucagon secretion, thus reducing blood sugar levels.
Dapagliflozin works through the inhibition of SGLT-2, which is a protein that the kidney uses to reabsorb glucose from the blood. It inhibits SGLT-2, and dapagliflozin aids in increasing the quantity of glucose excreted in the urine, thereby lowering blood sugar.
