Linanat 5 Tablet is an anti-diabetic drug used to treat type 2 diabetes in adults in conjunction with diet and lifestyle modifications. Linanat 5 Tablet is used to reduce blood sugar levels alone or in conjunction with other medications. People with type 2 diabetes either don't create enough insulin or the insulin they do make is incapable of performing its role in the body (insulin resistance). Type 2 diabetes, commonly known as adult-onset diabetes, is most common in people in their forties and fifties. Linanat 5 Tablet may be used with other diabetes medications such as Metformin, Sulphonylureas (for example, glimepiride and glipizide), Empagliflozin, or insulin. To achieve improved glucose control while using Linanat 5 Tablet, follow your doctor's recommended activity and food regimen.

- Linanat 5 Tablet is generally used to treat type 2 diabetes. Linanat 5 Tablet includes Linagliptin, an inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) that is often used. Linanat 5 Tablet is used to treat type 2 diabetes when diet and exercise alone are insufficient to regulate blood sugar levels. It acts by inhibiting DPP-4 (an enzyme that degrades the hormone 'Incretin').
- The enzyme 'Incretins' aids in the production of more insulin just when it is required and lowers the blood sugar level of the liver. Linanat 5 Tablet should not be used to treat diabetic ketoacidosis or in people with type 1 diabetes. Thus, the Linanat 5 Tablet serves an important role in managing blood sugar levels and preventing significant diabetic complications such as kidney damage, blindness, nerve damage, and limb loss.
