What is Janumet 50/1000mg? 

Janumet 50/1000mg is a prescription drug that is used in the management of type 2 diabetes. It controls your blood sugar levels by targeting various aspects of glucose regulation. 

Janumet is a combination of Metformin and Sitagliptin, which belongs to a class of drugs known as antidiabetic agents.

Along with proper diet and exercise, Janumet 50/1000mg controls blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. 

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic disorder that leads to abnormally high levels of glucose in your blood.

How does Janumet 50/1000mg work? 

Janumet combines two medications: Sitagliptin 50mg and Metformin 100mg. 

Sitagliptin helps the pancreas produce more insulin and ensures the body's practical usage of insulin. This decreases excess sugar made by the liver. 

Metformin is a biguanide that lowers glucose production in the liver and delays glucose absorption from the intestines. This further increases the body's sensitivity to insulin. Together, Sitagliptin and Metformin provide better blood sugar control.

The dosage of Janumet will depend on your medical condition, blood sugar levels, and other medications you take.
