For Type 2 Diabetes "I was diagnosed with type 2 about 6 months ago. I was given Janumet 50/500. It worked great until about a month ago. My sugar in the mornings has risen from the 120s to anywhere up to 190. I feel pretty bad in the mornings and sometimes throughout the day. I've also noticed I sweat at night. I get nauseated a lot and vomit at times. Not sure what my doc will do when my A1C results come back."

For Type 2 Diabetes "This medicine had bad side effects for me. I have been on this Janumet 50/1000 mg for over one year now. I was taking it one time a day. It made me dizzy, nausea, vomiting after every meal, or whenever I ate something, and night sweats. I used to weigh 230 lbs. at 5'10'' wearing size 16 clothes. Now I weigh 175 lbs. wearing size 12 clothes. I had to get all new clothes. In one week I can lose 10 to 15 lbs. and still losing because I cannot keep my food down. The doctor has me come for a follow-up appointment every 4 months. I informed my doctor of the problem. He was amazed to see the weight loss. I had aged 20 years. My hair had fallen out. My skin was scaly, not moist and smooth. He told me instead of taking the Janumet every day, take it every other day."

For Type 2 Diabetes "Janumet/Januvia is toxic poison! Stomach pain, vomiting, diarrhea is pancreatitis caused by the poison pill! Janumet inflames your pancreas and causes your blood sugar to run high! All the aches and pains, stiff neck, headaches, and anything else happening to you is from the poison pill! If you are taking the poison and it’s working for you, be patient, you will have the horrible side effects soon! Merck should be shut down."
