Benefits of Linalent-M Tablet

Treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus
Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet has two active substances in it i.e. metformin and linagliptin. Metformin belongs to a class of medicines called biguanides. Linagliptin belongs to a group called DPP-4 inhibitors. They work together in different ways to lower your blood glucose levels.

Lowering blood glucose levels is an essential part of managing diabetes.

Additionally, proper control of diabetes can also reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke. Taking this medicine regularly along with a proper program of diet and exercise will help you live a normal, healthy life. You should keep using this medicine for as long as it is prescribed because it is protecting your future health.

How to use Linalent-M Tablet

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush or break it. Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet should be taken with or after food.

How Linalent-M Tablet works

Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet is a combination of two medicines: metformin and linagliptin. Metformin is an antidiabetic medication (biguanide). It lowers glucose production in the liver, slows glucose absorption in the intestine, and improves the body's insulin sensitivity. Linagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, increases insulin release from the pancreas and reduces hormones that raise blood sugar levels. This reduces both fasting and post-meal sugar levels. Together, they provide better control of blood sugar.

Frequently asked questions

Does the use of Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet cause lactic acidosis?

Yes, the use of Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet can lead to lactic acidosis, which is also known as MALA (metformin-associated lactic acidosis). It is caused by increased levels of lactic acid in the blood. It is a very rare side effect associated with the use of metformin, and therefore, it is avoided in patients with underlying kidney disease, elderly patients, or those who consume large amounts of alcohol. Symptoms of lactic acidosis may include muscle pain or weakness, dizziness, tiredness, feeling cold in arms and legs, difficulty in breathing, nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, or slow heart rate. If you have these symptoms, stop taking Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet and immediately consult your doctor.

What are the possible side effects of Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet?

The use of Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet may cause some common side effects like nausea, headache, dizziness, fatigue, vomiting, and skin rash. Patients may also experience hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) when taken along with other antidiabetic medicines. It can also lead to a serious but rare side effect known as lactic acidosis. Additionally, its long-term use can also lead to vitamin B12 deficiency.

Are there any specific conditions in which Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet should not be taken?

The use of Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet should be avoided in patients with known allergies to any of the components of this medicine. The use of this medicine should be avoided in patients with severe kidney impairment, liver impairment, congestive heart failure, lactic acidosis, or diabetic ketoacidosis. Therefore, consult your doctor before using Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet.

Is it safe to drink alcohol while I am also taking Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet?

No, it is not safe to take Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet with alcohol. Doing so can increase the chances of lactic acidosis, particularly in cases of fasting, malnutrition, or kidney dysfunction. However, if you are not sure, consult your doctor.

Can the use of Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet cause hypoglycemia?

The use of Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet does not usually cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) on its own. However, it may occur if there is not enough calorie intake while using this medicine. Symptoms of hypoglycemia include nausea, headache, irritability, hunger, sweating, dizziness, fast heart rate, and feeling anxious or shaky. The symptoms are more likely to be noticed if you miss or delay your food, drink alcohol, overexercise, or take any other antidiabetic medicine along with it. Hence, regular monitoring of blood sugar levels is important. It is recommended to always carry glucose tablets, honey, or fruit juice with you.

Can the use of Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet lead to vitamin B12 deficiency?

Yes, long-term use of Linalent-M 2.5+500 Tablet can cause vitamin B12 deficiency as it interferes with the absorption of vitamin B12 in the stomach. If untreated, it may cause anemia and nerve problems. These may further cause a tingling sensation and numbness in hands and feet, weakness, urinary problems, change in mental status, and difficulty in maintaining balance (ataxia). Consult your doctor if you experience these symptoms. Your doctor may advise monitoring of B12 levels and prescribe a vitamin B12 supplement if required.
