Linfagilin

Afternoon, so I’ve been using this for about a week now, I’m just wondering if anyone else’s mmol levels increased? I was on emphaglozin then the doctors moved me onto this.

Any help would be appreciated
 
Did your GP tell you why and how the gliptin works?

You will see some changes however over the next few weeks after it has built up in your body, you should see it lowering a little.
And it will help with a few dietary changes.
If you do find that after a couple of weeks more, then the dosage may be low.
 
My doctor just added Linagliptin to my daily Jardiance (Empagliflozin). After reading up on it, I am concerned about increased muscle pain that seems to be a common side-effect. I have both Rheumatoid and Osteo Arthritis resulting from a lower back and neck injury (from 54 yrs ago) and this led to degenerative disc disease that left me with mild to moderate to debilitating pain (24/7) since injury. Of course, now age does not help it to improve (especially the neck pain).

Anybody have any shareable experience (good or bad) related to using Trajenta (Linagliptin)?

I have used a gliptin for nearly ten years and no side effects.
The need for the gliptin usually has something to do with your first phase insulin response, or with insulin resistance, it helps with providing additional insulin from your pancreas.

As always, if you decide to take it, if you do get side effects, there are other gliptins or meds. Speak to your doctor.
