Linahert-E (Linagliptin 5 mg + Empagliflozin 25 mg) can be taken along with other antidiabetic medications, including insulin, when prescribed by a doctor. This combination works through complementary mechanisms—empagliflozin, an SGLT-2 inhibitor, lowers blood glucose by reducing renal glucose reabsorption and increasing glucose excretion in urine, while linagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, enhances incretin hormones (GLP-1 and GIP) to improve insulin secretion and reduce glucagon levels. Because of these insulin-independent actions, Linahert-E is often used as an add-on therapy to diet, exercise, metformin, or insulin to achieve better glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes, though dose adjustments and monitoring are essential to minimize the risk of hypoglycemia.
