Janumet

Janumet is an oral diabetes drug used, along with diet and exercise, for treating type 2 diabetes in certain patients. It works by increasing insulin release. It decreases the amount of sugar that the liver produces and the intestines absorb. It also helps make your body more sensitive to the insulin that you naturally produce.
