AjaDuo 25/5 mg Tablet comprises two active ingredients:

• Empagliflozin (25 mg): This ingredient is a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor. It reduces glucose reabsorption from your kidneys, leading to increased glucose excretion through urine. This process helps lower plasma glucose levels, effectively managing your blood sugar levels.

• Linagliptin (5 mg): As a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, linagliptin slows down the inactivation of incretin hormones. Incretins are a group of metabolic hormones that reduce blood sugar levels in a glucose-dependent manner. By keeping these hormones active for longer, linagliptin helps reduce both fasting and post-meal blood sugar concentrations.

• As part of managing your type 2 diabetes, aim to maintain a balanced diet. This means consuming controlled portions of carbohydrates and including more high-fibre foods like whole grains, fruits, and vegetables in your meals.

• Regular physical activity can help control your blood sugar levels. Try to engage in moderate exercise, such as brisk walking or cycling, for at least 30 minutes each day. Always consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
