Linabite M 1000mg/5mg Tablet

Linabite M 1000mg/5mg Tablet is a dual-action medicine used in the management of type 2 diabetes. It works by lowering the amount of sugar made by the liver, slowing sugar absorption in the intestine, improving how the body responds to insulin, and helping the pancreas release more insulin when needed. By targeting diabetes in multiple ways, it assists in keeping blood sugar under control.

Doctors may prescribe this tablet on its own or in combination with other anti-diabetic medicines. The medicine is most effective when taken alongside lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet, exercise, and weight management. Taking it with meals can help reduce stomach-related discomfort. The dose depends on your health condition and response to treatment, and it should be followed exactly as advised by your doctor.

To gain the best results, this medicine should be taken regularly without skipping doses. Do not stop using it or change the prescribed schedule unless guided by your healthcare provider. Diabetes management depends not only on medicines but also on healthy daily habits, so following your doctor’s plan for diet and exercise is essential.

Some individuals may notice headache, nausea, dizziness, vomiting, skin reactions, fatigue, or changes in liver function while taking this medicine. Occasionally, low blood sugar can occur, especially if the medicine is taken along with insulin or other diabetes treatments. If side effects become troublesome or do not go away, consult your doctor.

Before starting this treatment, inform your doctor if you have a history of kidney, liver, heart, or pancreas-related issues. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should seek medical advice before use. Alcohol intake is not recommended, as it can increase the risk of low blood sugar. Your doctor may monitor kidney function and blood glucose levels during the course of therapy. This medicine is not intended for type 1 diabetes.

The active ingredients in this formulation are metformin, a biguanide that reduces sugar production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity, and linagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor that enhances insulin release and lowers the activity of hormones that raise blood sugar. Together, they provide better blood sugar control throughout the day.

In case of a missed dose, take it when you remember unless it is almost time for the next one. If so, skip the forgotten dose and continue with the usual schedule. Avoid doubling up doses.
