Janumet 50/1000 mg is an effective medicine to manage diabetes by controlling the level of sugar in the body. Doctors generally recommend treating type 2 diabetes mellitus either alone or in combination with other medicines. It is not advised to treat type 1 diabetes. Sitagliptin and Metformin HCL are the active ingredients in the Janumet tablet. It is an antihyperglycemic or anti-diabetic drug that contains DPP-4 inhibitors and is administered orally to help reduce the blood sugar level.

You should take Janumet 50/1000 mg regularly as prescribed by your doctor. Follow the directions carefully when it comes to using the medicine. The anti-diabetic agent works best when used along with diet and regular exercise.

The dose you are given will depend on your condition, blood glucose levels, and what other medicines you take, including vitamins or herbal supplements. Taking it with meals helps to reduce the chances of an upset stomach.    

Janumet 50/1000 mg is available in the form of a tablet. Swallow the tablet with a glass of water. It should be combined with meals for the best results. Make sure to take a balanced diet while taking medicine. It is important to take the drug at the same time every day. This will ensure that you do not forget to take medicine. Remember to take medicine for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. Keep in mind that medicine helps to control diabetes but does not cure it.

Before taking the Janumet 50/1000 mg, tell your doctor if you are allergic to sitagliptin or metformin or if you have any other allergies. Before you consider an anti-diabetic agent, tell your doctor your medical history, especially of liver disease, severe breathing problems, kidney disease, stones in your gallbladder, and a disease of the pancreas. Before having surgery, tell your doctor about all the products, including prescription, non-prescription, or herbal products. You may discontinue treatment for a short time for the surgical procedure. You should consult your doctor for instructions before your surgical procedure. Limit alcohol while receiving Sitagliptin/metformin formulation because it can increase your risk of developing low blood sugar, disease of the pancreas, or lactic acidosis. High fever, water pills, diarrhoea, vomiting, or too much sweating may cause dehydration and increase your risk of lactic acidosis.

Along with its needed effects, the combination drug Janumet 50/1000 mg may cause some unwanted effects. Although not everyone experiences side effects, you may need medical attention if you get side effects associated with Janumet. You may experience dizziness, blurred vision, or dizziness due to extremely low blood glucose levels. Avoid driving or indulging in activities that require you to be attentive. Check with your doctor if any of these side effects continue or are bothersome or if you are concerned about them. More common side effects include indigestion, lack of strength, feeling of fullness, and gas in the stomach.
