Product description
Common use
Jentadueto XR are oral diabetes medicines that help control blood sugar levels. Metformin works by decreasing glucose (sugar) production in the liver and decreasing absorption of glucose by the intestines. Linagliptin works by regulating the levels of insulin your body produces after eating. Jentadueto XR is a combination medicine used together with diet and exercise to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Jentadueto XR is not for treating type 1 diabetes.
Dosage and direction
Take Jentadueto XR with a meal, unless your doctor tells you otherwise. Swallow the tablet whole and do not crush, chew, or break it. You may have low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) and feel very hungry, dizzy, irritable, confused, anxious, or shaky. To quickly treat hypoglycemia, eat or drink a fast-acting source of sugar (fruit juice, hard candy, crackers, raisins, or non-diet soda).
Precautions
Tell your doctor if you have ever had: kidney disease; heart disease; liver disease; pancreatitis; gallstones; alcoholism; or high triglycerides (a type of fat in the blood).
Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Follow your doctor's instructions about using this medicine if you are pregnant or you become pregnant. Controlling diabetes is very important during pregnancy, and having high blood sugar may cause complications in both the mother and the baby.

You should not use this medicine if you are allergic to linagliptin (Tradjenta) or metformin, or if you have severe kidney disease or diabetic ketoacidosis (call your doctor for treatment with insulin).
If you need to have surgery or any type of x-ray or CT scan using a dye that is injected into your veins, you may need to temporarily stop taking Jentadueto XR. Be sure your caregivers know ahead of time that you are using this medication.
Possible side effect
Common side effects of Jentadueto XR may include: sore throat; sinus pain, stuffy nose; or diarrhea.

Take the medicine (with food) as soon as you can, but skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next dose. Do not take two doses at one time.
