Januvia 100 mg contains the active ingredient Sitagliptin, which reduces blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disorder in which your body stops making enough insulin hormone, and the hormone that your body releases does not work the way it should. Your body can also make an excessive amount of sugar, which builds up in the blood, leading to serious health problems like kidney disorders, blindness, heart disease and amputation.
Sitagliptin effectively increases the levels of the insulin hormone produced after meals and reduces the amount of sugar produced by the body. The medicine is unlikely to cause hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar). It is recommended in combination with a diet and exercise to help control blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. Januvia is a prescription medicine to help reduce blood sugar levels, which are excessively high because of type 2 diabetes.
