The drug TRIJARDY XR contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):
1
Empagliflozin
UNII HDC1R2M35U - EMPAGLIFLOZIN
|
Empagliflozin is a reversible, highly potent (IC50 of 1.3 nmol) and selective competitive inhibitor of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2). Empagliflozin improves glycaemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes by reducing renal glucose reabsorption. |
2
Linagliptin
UNII 3X29ZEJ4R2 - LINAGLIPTIN
|
Linagliptin is an inhibitor of the enzyme DPP-4 (dipeptidyl peptidase 4, EC 3.4.14.5) an enzyme which is involved in the inactivation of the incretin hormones GLP-1 and GIP (glucagon-like peptide1, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide). These hormones are rapidly degraded by the enzyme DPP-4. Both incretin hormones are involved in the physiological regulation of glucose homeostasis. |
3
Metformin
UNII 786Z46389E - METFORMIN HYDROCHLORIDE
|
Metformin is a biguanide with antihyperglycaemic effects, lowering both basal and postprandial plasma glucose. It does not stimulate insulin secretion and therefore does not produce hypoglycaemia. |
