Tradjenta (linagliptin): I have only been on it for about 4 days. I noticed I have been feeling dizzy. Not sure whats causing it. I take Tradjenta with Metformin. I am hoping this medicine works but saw something if your planning on becoming pregnant not to take it. Some days I wonder if insulin would be better.

Tradjenta (linagliptin): I've felt awful since using Tradjenta. Been on it for 6 days and my average glucose is up 30 mg/dl higher than normal.

Tradjenta (linagliptin): My face has totally broken out and I never Breakout! Blood sugar still high. Dropped it just a free points. I would rather take a shot everyday that truly lowered it.

linagliptin: I have not had adverse reactions. I find that it effectively drops my blood sugar significantly and effectively. I also use metformin but it is the extended release type. Linagliptin is great as I take it first thing in the morning before breakfast. Metformin always needs to be taken with food which is not always convenient. I know people on regular Metformin can become dizzy because their blood sugar went too low without enough food. To anyone on this medicine, especially for the first month, I would measure blood sugar several times throughout the day to see if your blood sugar dips too low.

Tradjenta (linagliptin): Interesting results which vary from day to day. Have had higher than usual blood sugar readings on some days. Have taken Tradjenta only 3 weeks. Deleted almost all carbs from diet and had better blood sugar results. 124 vs. 143 upon rising. Also eat an earlier dinner, and no snacking after dinner. Resulted in 124 reading in morning. Will take for a month and decide if I will continue.
