Hi and welcome to the board.


Janumet is a combination of Januvia and Metformin. I take both of these drugs but singly. I don't think anyone here on the board is taking this in combination. I would suggest that you make sure that you take it with food in your tummy because the metformin could make you sick until you get used to it. Januvia is supposed to have nausea as one of its side effects but it has never bothered me.


Januvia has finally allowed me to lose some weight and for that I am grateful. Please let me know how you do on this combination drug.
