Janumet is a combination medication that contains 2 active ingredients: sitagliptin and metformin. They are used together to improve glucose levels in your blood and do so in different ways:

Sitagliptin

Sitagliptin is part of a group of medications called DPP-4 inhibitors. It increases the amount of a natural substance called 'incretin' hormones in the intestine, after a meal. These hormones will raise insulin levels only when the glucose levels in the blood are too high, which will reduce the amount of sugars in your body. Sitagliptin will also decrease the amount of sugar produced by the liver.

Metformin

Metformin is a biguanide medication that works by decreasing the amount of glucose produced by liver cells, that your stomach or intestines absorb. It will also assist your body by making it respond more effectively to the naturally produced insulin that your body produces.

Janumet tablets are extremely easy to take. It is always best to take a Janumet tablet twice a day with a meal and preferably with a glass of water. This particular tablet shouldn't be split, cut, or broken before taking it.

If you miss a dose, it is advised that you wait until you are due your next dose, rather than making up for it by taking extra. Janumet should be taken regularly, at the same time each day, in order to get the most from it.

Janumet is made specifically for patients with type 2 diabetes and should not be used to treat type 1 diabetes. It is also considered unsuitable for people who have pre-existing health conditions including decreased liver function, kidney problems and metabolic acidosis (including diabetic ketoacidosis.) You will also not be prescribed this medication if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

However, like all prescription medications, there is a risk of developing side effects. Most of these side effects are fairly mild in nature and commonly disappear once your body has become accustomed to the treatment. The more common side effects associated with Janumet are nausea, flatulence and vomiting. Very rare side effects include constipation, diarrhoea and sleepiness. If you have any concerns about a specific side effect persisting, it is recommended that you contact your doctor.
