Januvia 100 mg is an antidiabetic medicine used as monotherapy to lower blood sugar in people with Type 2 diabetes. It is used as an adjunct to diet and exercise to achieve blood sugar control in adult patients for whom metformin (an antidiabetic medication) is inappropriate due to intolerance or contraindications.
As an add-on combination, Januvia is prescribed for adult patients with type 2 diabetes to control blood sugar levels in conjunction with metformin, metformin and a sulfonylurea, or pioglitazone (alone or with metformin), or premixed or long-acting insulin (alone or with metformin). All these combination treatments are applicable when the existing therapy, along with diet and exercise, is not able to provide adequate glycemic control. The active ingredient in medicine is Sitagliptin, which causes your body to produce more of the insulin hormone. This helps lower your blood sugar levels.

Â
Januvia 100 is available as a tablet and can be taken at any time of the day. The recommended dose of the antidiabetic medication is 100 mg once daily. The tablet may be taken without regard to food and should be swallowed whole with a glass of water. The tablets must not be crushed, split or chewed before swallowing.
