Uses

Januvia is used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus which is also known as non-insulin-dependent diabetes (NIDDM).

How it Works

Januvia is known as a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor. Januvia operates by reducing the amount of glucagon and increases the amount of insulin produced by the pancreas to coltrol the blood sugar levels in the body.
