The European Commission has approved linagliptin in combination with metformin and metformin plus sulfonylurea.
Linagliptin is also approved for use as monotherapy in patients inadequately controlled by diet and exercise alone and for whom metformin is inappropriate due to intolerance, or contraindicated due to renal impairment.
