Janumet 50mg/1000mg Tablet is used for the management of diabetes and related metabolic conditions.

Janumet Tablet offers several benefits in diabetes management.

• Helps control post-meal blood sugar levels
• Reduces risk of long-term complications

Its combination formula enhances effectiveness compared to single-drug therapy.

Janumet works through the combined effects of Sitagliptin and Metformin.

Sitagliptin increases incretin hormone levels, which stimulate insulin release and reduce glucagon secretion, thereby lowering blood glucose levels after meals.

Metformin decreases glucose production in the liver and improves insulin sensitivity in muscle tissues, allowing better utilization of glucose by the body.

Together, these actions provide effective control of both fasting and postprandial blood sugar levels.
