Aloja 25 Tablet

Aloja 25 Tablet is a prescription diabetes medicine that contains alogliptin in each tablet. This pack contains 25 mg of alogliptin per tablet, supplied as a strip/box of 10 packs by Indoco Remedies. It belongs to the DPP-4 inhibitor class and is used along with diet and exercise to help lower blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes. Aloja 25 Tablet is not used to treat type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis.

How it works: Alogliptin in Aloja 25 Tablet helps your body release more insulin when blood sugar is high and lowers the amount of sugar the liver puts into the blood. Since it is taken as a tablet by mouth, it works gradually to help improve day-to-day blood sugar control rather than giving immediate relief.

Aloja 25 Tablet is the higher-strength option compared with Aloja 12.5 Tablet, so it may be chosen for people whose doctor wants the full 25 mg dose rather than a lower-strength tablet. Because it is a standard swallow tablet, it does not work faster than the lower strength, but it delivers a larger dose in the same form and is meant only for patients whose prescriber has assessed that this strength is appropriate.

• Type 2 diabetes
• Blood sugar control with diet and exercise
• Add-on therapy with other diabetes medicines
• Helps lower fasting and after-meal blood sugar

• Swallow Aloja 25 Tablet whole with water; do not chew, crush, or split it unless your doctor tells you to.
• Take it exactly once daily if prescribed that way; take it at the same time each day.
• It can usually be taken with or without food.
• If you also use insulin or a sulfonylurea, follow your prescriber’s instructions carefully because low blood sugar can happen.
• Do not use it to treat sudden high blood sugar symptoms; it is for ongoing glucose control.
• If you miss a dose, take it when you remember unless it is close to the next dose—do not double up.

Aloja 25 Tablet provides 25 mg of alogliptin per tablet, which is the full labeled strength in this product. In adults, it is commonly taken once daily, and the maximum daily amount is usually 25 mg unless your doctor adjusts your plan for kidney function or other medical reasons. Your prescriber decides the exact dose and schedule based on your blood sugar, other medicines, and overall health.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
