About linagliptin

What is linagliptin?
Linagliptin is a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved oral medication used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It belongs to the drug class DPP-4 inhibitors (dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors). By inhibiting the DPP-4 enzyme, linagliptin increases the levels of hormones called incretins, which help the pancreas produce more insulin and reduce the liver’s sugar production, especially after eating.

Linagliptin is available under the brand name Tradjenta and comes in a once-daily 5-milligram (mg) tablet. It’s not intended for the treatment of type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. It’s commonly used alone or in combination with other diabetes medications such as metformin, sulfonylureas, or insulin.

Key benefits of linagliptin:
• Doesn’t usually cause weight gain
• Low risk of hypoglycemia when used alone
• No dose adjustment needed for kidney or liver impairment
• Convenient once-daily oral dose

Linagliptin is part of many treatment plans where lifestyle changes, diet, and exercise are also emphasized. It offers a gentle approach to blood sugar management for patients who require a lower-risk option.

How to get a linagliptin prescription online?

Getting a linagliptin prescription online is a simple and secure process through licensed telehealth platforms. These services allow for virtual diabetes consultations, prescription issuance, and medication delivery to your local or preferred pharmacy.

Steps to get a linagliptin prescription online:

  1. Book a virtual visit: Go to helloklarity.com and schedule an appointment with a licensed provider.
  2. Submit recent lab results, such as A1C, blood glucose, or kidney function if available.
  3. Attend a virtual visit with a licensed provider to evaluate your diabetes status.
  4. If appropriate, receive a prescription for linagliptin (Tradjenta).
  5. Pick up or receive your medication from a pharmacy or delivery service.
  6. Schedule follow-ups to monitor effectiveness, side effects, and A1C levels.

This method is Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)-compliant, convenient, and ideal for patients managing long-term conditions like diabetes who may have trouble with in-person appointments.

How does linagliptin compare to other medications?

Linagliptin is one of several medications available for managing type 2 diabetes. It offers a unique combination of gentle glucose control, low risk of hypoglycemia, and no need for dose adjustments in patients with kidney or liver impairment.

Compared to other DPP-4 inhibitors:
• Sitagliptin (Januvia): Similar efficacy but requires dose adjustment in kidney disease
• Saxagliptin (Onglyza): May increase the risk of heart failure in some patients
• Alogliptin: Also needs renal dosing and may cause more frequent joint pain

Compared to other drug classes:
• Metformin: First-line agent, may cause gastrointestinal (GI) side effects and is contraindicated in advanced kidney disease
• SGLT2 inhibitors (empagliflozin): Promote weight loss and cardiovascular benefits but can increase the risk of genital infections and dehydration
• GLP-1 receptor agonists (semaglutide): Injectable or oral, help with weight loss, and have cardiovascular benefits but may cause nausea or require titration
• Sulfonylureas: Effective but carry a higher risk of hypoglycemia and weight gain

Why patients may prefer linagliptin:
• Simple once-daily dosing
• Well-tolerated and weight-neutral
• Kidney- and liver-friendly profile
• Compatible with other oral medications



It’s often selected for patients who need gentle glycemic control without significant side effects or lifestyle disruption.
