Monotherapy: JANUVIA is indicated as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Combination with metformin: JANUVIA is indicated in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus to improve glycemic control in combination with metformin as initial therapy or when the single agent alone, with diet and exercise, does not provide adequate glycemic control. Initial combination therapy or maintenance of combination therapy may not be appropriate for all patients. These management options are left to the discretion of the health care provider.
Combination with a sulphonylurea: Januvia is indicated in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus to improve glycemic control in combination with a sulphonylurea when treatment with maximal tolerated dose of sulphonylurea alone, with diet and exercise, does not provide adequate glycemic control and when metformin is inappropriate due to contraindications or intolerance.
Combination with metformin and a sulphonylurea: Januvia is indicated in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus to improve glycemic control in combination with metformin and a sulphonylurea when dual therapy with these two agents and with diet and exercise does not provide adequate glycemic control.
Combination with a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) agonist: JANUVIA is indicated in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus to improve glycemic control in combination with a PPARγ agonist (i.e. thiazolidinediones) when diet and exercise, plus the single agent do not provide adequate glycemic control.
Combination with metformin and a PPARγ agonist: JANUVIA is indicated in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus to improve glycemic control in combination with metformin and a PPARγ agonist (i.e. thiazolidinediones) when dual therapy with these agents, with diet and exercise, does not provide adequate glycemic control.
Combination with Insulin: JANUVIA is indicated in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in combination with insulin (with or without metformin).
