Januvia 25mg Tablet 7 contains sitagliptin (25 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• DPP-4 enzyme inhibition: Sitagliptin blocks an enzyme called dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) that breaks down incretin hormones in your body.

• Incretin hormone preservation: By preventing the breakdown of incretin hormones, sitagliptin helps these natural substances remain active for longer periods in your bloodstream.

• Enhanced insulin production: The preserved incretin hormones stimulate your pancreas to release more insulin when blood sugar levels are high, particularly after meals.

• Reduced glucagon release: Sitagliptin helps decrease the amount of glucagon (a hormone that raises blood sugar) produced by your pancreas, which helps lower your blood sugar levels.

• Decreased liver glucose output: By influencing hormone levels, sitagliptin reduces the amount of glucose (sugar) your liver produces, helping control fasting and after-meal blood sugar levels.
