Januvia is a medication that helps lower blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes. The active ingredient in Januvia is sitagliptin, which works by increasing the levels of incretin hormones in your body. These hormones help control blood sugar by increasing insulin release and decreasing the amount of sugar produced by the liver. Januvia is suitable for individuals with type 2 diabetes who need help managing their blood sugar levels.
