[QUOTE="Blackwater5, post: 2510312, member: 552414"] The linagliptin was stopped as soon as I reported the problem and I had between one and two months with no meds, just diet and exercise. But the linagliptin didn't stop my HB1ac rising, just slowed the increase. I was off all meds for a couple of months and am now on Jardiance 10 mg. Before the oral steroids my bg was controlled in limits but with them it shoots up after taking them and only returns to 4 to 5 mmol/L next morning. As for the pemphigoid, it's an autoimmune skin disease, incurable, and doesn't go away when you stop taking the meds that caused it. I'm hoping that this time after the blisters have gone they don't come back. My GP didn't know about this rare side-effect to gliptins but evidence is mounting. I have done a lot of reading on the subject and it seems that diabetics are harder to treat. Regarding ye;llow cards I have no idea if my GP completed a yellow card, my record just says I'm allergic to gliptins. But I did a yellow card myself as I think that the more info out there the better, and hopefully it will stop more people sufferring. [/QUOTE]
