JANUVIA  (SITAGLIPTIN PHOSPHATE):  Sitagliptin is used with a proper diet and exercise program and possibly with other medications to control high blood sugar. It is used in people with type 2 diabetes. Controlling high blood sugar helps prevent kidney damage, blindness, nerve problems, loss of limbs, and sexual function problems. Proper control of diabetes may also lessen your risk of a heart attack or stroke. Sitagliptin is a diabetes drug that works by increasing levels of natural substances called incretins. Incretins help to control blood sugar by increasing insulin release, especially after a meal. They also decrease the amount of sugar your liver makes.   FDA Approval Date: 2006-10-16 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 2  Type 2 diabetes glucose readings went up After taking it for about a year I weaned myself off and now my readings are better. I don't think it works unless you have type 2 bad, mine is more on the insulin resistance borderline side. F 51 1 years
