What Januvia 100mg Tablets is and what it is used for?
Januvia 100mg tablets contain the active substance sitagliptin which is a member of a class of medicines called DPP-4 inhibitors (dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors) that lowers blood sugar levels in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
This medicine helps to increase the levels of insulin produced after a meal and decreases the amount of sugar made by the body.
Your doctor has prescribed Januvia 100mg to help lower your blood sugar, which is too high because of your type 2 diabetes. This medicine can be used alone or in combination with certain other medicines (insulin, metformin, sulphonylureas, or glitazones) that lower blood sugar, which you may already be taking for your diabetes together with a food and exercise plan.
What is type 2 diabetes?
Type 2 diabetes is a condition in which your body does not make enough insulin, and the insulin that your body produces does not work as well as it should. Your body can also make too much sugar. When this happens, sugar (glucose) builds up in the blood. This can lead to serious medical problems like heart disease, kidney disease, blindness, and amputation.

Type 2 diabetes is a common condition?that causes the level of sugar (glucose) in the blood to become too high.
It can cause symptoms like excessive thirst, needing to pee a lot and tiredness. It can also increase your risk of getting serious problems with your eyes, heart and nerves.
It?s a lifelong condition that can affect your everyday life. You may need to change your diet, take medicines and have regular check-ups.
It?s caused by problems with a chemical in the body (hormone) called insulin. It?s often linked to being overweight or inactive, or having a family history of type 2 diabetes.

Understanding your type 2 diabetes medication
Most people need medicine to control their type 2 diabetes.
The medicine helps keep your blood sugar level as normal as possible to prevent health problems. You?ll have to take it for the rest of your life.
Diabetes usually gets worse over time, so your medicine or dose may need to change.
Adjusting your diet and being active?is also necessary to keep your blood sugar level down.
How to manage your diabetes

A healthy diet and keeping active will help you manage your blood sugar level. It will also help you to control your weight and generally feel better.

YOU CAN EAT MANY TYPES OF FOODS
There?s nothing you can?t eat if you have type 2 diabetes, but you?ll have to limit certain foods.
You should:

eat a wide range of foods ? including fruit, vegetables and some starchy foods like pasta
