Do I need a prescription to order Tradjenta?
Tradjenta is a prescription medicine, so we need a valid prescription from your healthcare provider before your order can be filled. You can upload it at checkout, or you or your doctor can email it to service@canadianinsulin.com or fax it to 1-866-951-0118. If the prescription is missing, your order won’t be processed until we receive it.
What does the price of Tradjenta include?
Prices on Canadian Insulin are in US dollars (USD), and the price in the buy box covers one pack of 30 tablets, multiplied by the number of packs you choose. Shipping is added at checkout and shown before you pay, and because Tradjenta ships dry-packed, you can choose Standard or Express shipping. Orders of $300 or less shipped from Canada carry a $35 surcharge.
Which Tradjenta strength and quantity should I order?
Tradjenta is listed in one strength, 5 mg tablets, in packs of 30 from Canada. Check that your prescription is for linagliptin on its own, not a combination tablet such as Jentadueto, then choose the number of packs that matches the tablet count your prescriber authorized. If your prescription doesn’t match the options in the buy box, contact us before you order.
How is Tradjenta shipped and how long does it take?
Tradjenta tablets don’t need refrigeration, so they ship dry-packed. Orders usually ship within 48–72 hours of processing, or up to 5 business days in peak periods. After your order ships, Express delivery takes 3–5 business days and Standard delivery takes 5–10 days. Customs checks or weather can occasionally add time.

About Tradjenta
Tradjenta is the brand-name form of linagliptin, an oral diabetes medicine used with diet and exercise to help improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. Tradjenta can be bought online, with current pricing shown during ordering and tablet quantity choices matched to your clinician’s directions. The 5 mg tablet strength should be checked against the medicine name, active ingredient, and directions you were given.
Linagliptin belongs to a group called DPP-4 inhibitors, which are non-insulin medicines that help incretin hormones support insulin release after meals and reduce excess glucagon. It is not insulin, not an injectable medication, and not a treatment for type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. If you are considering Tradjenta from Canada for US delivery from Canada, focus first on the correct tablet strength, total quantity, and safe-use information.
Tradjenta Price and Cost: What Your Total Covers
The cost of Tradjenta depends on the number of 30-tablet packs you order and the shipping method you choose. Tradjenta is listed in one strength, 5 mg, with Canada as the country of origin, and all prices are in US dollars (USD).
Shipping is added at checkout. Tradjenta can ship Standard or Express. Orders of $300 or less shipped from Canada carry a $35 surcharge. If your total is different from your last order, it’s usually because the quantity or shipping method changed. See our shipping page for full rates and details.

Tradjenta Strengths and Pack Sizes Available
| Strength | Country of origin | Pack size |
| 5 mg tablets | Canada | 30 tablets |
Each tablet contains linagliptin. In Canada, Tradjenta is sold under the brand name Trajenta, so the pack you receive may be labeled Trajenta.
How Tradjenta Is Taken
Tradjenta is a tablet taken by mouth once a day, with or without a meal. Take it exactly as written on your prescription label, and don’t change how you take it unless your prescriber tells you to.
Store the tablets at room temperature (15–30°C, or 59–86°F) in their original packaging, out of reach of children.
What Tradjenta Is Approved For
Tradjenta (linagliptin) is a DPP-4 inhibitor. Alongside diet and exercise, it is approved to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes, including when used with other diabetes medicines such as metformin, a sulfonylurea or basal insulin. It is not for type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis.

Tradjenta Safety Information
Don’t take Tradjenta if you’ve had an allergic reaction to linagliptin or any ingredient in the tablet, or if you have type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. Tell your healthcare provider about any history of pancreatitis, heart failure and all the medicines you take.
The most common side effects include cold-like symptoms, and low blood sugar when Tradjenta is used with insulin or a sulfonylurea. Serious side effects listed in the product monograph include:
- inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis)
- low blood sugar when taken with insulin or a sulfonylurea
- serious allergic reactions, including swelling of the face, lips or throat
- heart failure
- blisters or sores on the skin (bullous pemphigoid)
Get medical help right away for severe stomach pain that won’t go away, signs of an allergic reaction, or new shortness of breath or swelling in your legs. This isn’t a complete list. See the official prescribing information and MedlinePlus linagliptin information for full details.
How Tradjenta Compares to the Other Options in Its Class
Tradjenta belongs to the DPP-4 inhibitor class and contains linagliptin on its own. Jentadueto combines linagliptin with metformin. Janumet and Janumet XR combine sitagliptin with metformin, and Kazano combines alogliptin with metformin.
These medicines share a class, but each has its own approved uses, strengths and label, and they aren’t interchangeable. Your prescriber decides which one fits your treatment. Browse all DPP-4 inhibitors.

Yes. Tradjenta is a prescription medicine, and we need a valid prescription before your order can be filled. Upload it at checkout, or have your doctor email it to service@canadianinsulin.com or fax it to 1-866-951-0118. If you prefer, we can also contact your clinic to request the prescription.
Why does my Tradjenta total change between orders?
Your total depends on the number of packs, the country of origin and the shipping method you choose. All prices are in US dollars (USD). If any of these change, your total changes too. Orders of $300 or less shipped from Canada carry a $35 surcharge.
Is Tradjenta the same as the generic?
Tradjenta is Boehringer Ingelheim’s brand of linagliptin, sold in Canada as Trajenta, and this listing is the brand-name product from Canada. A generic would contain the same active ingredient, but whether you can switch is a decision for your prescriber or pharmacist.
