Can Tradjenta Cause Allergic Reactions?

Hi, I had an allergic reaction to metformin. My dr. Put me on Victoza and lantus. The Victoza works great. My sugars were in the 300 and 400s, with Victoza they stay under 200, normally around 150-170. My insurance won t authorize the Victoza, so I now have to try tradjenta. Will it do just as well and is there anything in this drug like in metformin? I am very scared of having another reaction like I did before.
