Januvia Tips from Pharmacists

• Januvia works in conjunction with diet and exercise. Try to eat healthily and get regular exercise. Avoid big changes in diet and exercise to prevent fluctuations in blood sugar levels.

• You can take Januvia with or without food. Take your tablet at around the same time every day.

• Tell your doctor right away if you experience symptoms of pancreatitis, such as nausea, vomiting, and severe pain in the left or middle part of the abdomen.

• Call your doctor without delay if you experience swelling, rapid weight gain, or difficulty breathing - these could be signs of heart failure.

• Monitor your blood glucose levels, especially if taking other diabetes medications.
