Benefits
I was having some serious side effects with my previous anti diabetics so with my physician’s consultation I switched to Januvia. Though it does have its own side effects but these are quite manageable, plus it really takes care of my blood sugar levels.
Side Effects
In the first three or four weeks after taking Januvia pills, I had a slight headache and some flu like symptoms but time took care of them. I am experiencing a steady weight loss, which because of my excessive weight, should be considered a good side effect here, but the muscle cramps that I am experiencing for the last few months are becoming quite intense.
