    Tradjenta Information

    Tradjenta dosage

    The usual recommended dose of Tradjenta is 5 mg taken once daily. This dosage is only approved for patients with type 2 diabetes. It is not recommended to be used to treat type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis.

    How Tradjenta works

    Tradjenta works as a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor. It helps increase levels of incretin hormones, which play an important role in the release of insulin throughout the day and after meals. Insulin helps transport glucose, or blood sugar, into the body’s cells to be used for energy. It also helps reduce the production of sugar in the liver.

    What Tradjenta is used for

    Tradjenta, along with diet and exercise, is used to help lower overall blood sugar levels in those with type 2 diabetes. It should be used along with an exercise and diet plan for maximum benefits in lowering blood sugar levels.

    This medication is not used to treat type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. It has also not been studied in patients with a history of pancreatitis. Taking this regularly can help reduce the risk of complications from type 2 diabetes, such as eye problems, kidney problems, nerve damage, foot damage, and heart problems.

    Before Tradjenta is prescribed

    You should tell your doctor if you have a history of pancreatitis, or inflammation of the pancreas, before taking Tradjenta. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before taking treatment. Some medications may interact with this, so be sure to consult your healthcare provider if you are also taking insulin, other antidiabetic medications, or an antibiotic called rifampin.
