Helps with blood sugar control without causing weight gain.

MAR

2009

I have only been on the medication a relatively short time, but so far it's been very helpful. I've seen a lot of improvement in my blood sugars without any increase in weight gain.

Caution-increases appetite in direct conflict with MD treatment

This medication is the second prescription in controlling my own blood sugar. The fact that it does help control my blood sugar is a big positive; however, it has increased my appetite two fold. Januvia presents less side effects than some others or to a lesser degree. I am dieting as well as exercising regularly. Best to work closely with your doctor on finding the right combination for controlling your diabetes. Depending upon your prescription plan (and assuming you have one), this is less expensive than some.

APR

2009

When my blood sugars starting going up and causing more problems last year my doctor thought to put me on Januvia and I said ok let's try it. Boy, was that a big mistake for me to have agreed to. I got so sick from that medicine that I dropped 30 pounds in a month and half due not eating. My doctor had to finally take me off of this medicine when I told her I couldn't handle the sickness, no appetite, nausea and the fact my blood sugars weren't coming down at all anyways. We ended up choosing a different medicine that helped for a while and we then had to take more drastic measures later on.
