For Type 2 Diabetes "I've been on Tradjenta for about 6 weeks, and I can hardly walk. My hips are so sore and achy, I thought I was going to need hip surgery, but after reading the same side effects others are experiencing, I no longer want this medication. I haven't seen my sugar lowered either. I was told it may cause me to lose weight, and I did lose 3 pounds, but the pain is not worth the effort."

For Type 2 Diabetes "I have been on Tradjenta for about a month alongside metformin. Since taking Tradjenta, I have a permanent blocked nose and severe hand pain to the point that I cannot use my hand. I have stopped taking this medicine and hope the pain subsides. Blood sugar levels are still erratic."

"I suffer from arthritis and have had side effects with Tradjenta. I stopped taking it but was told by the doctor to restart it. I got really bad tendinitis in my arms, legs, hands, and back. It is so bad that I can hardly stand the pain even with now taking meloxicam and diclofenac gel. HELP!"
