Is a generic version of Janumet XR available?

What is Janumet XR and how does it work?
Janumet XR is an FDA-approved, once-daily oral medication for adults with Type 2 diabetes. It combines two active ingredients: sitagliptin and extended-release metformin. Sitagliptin works by increasing insulin release and decreasing glucagon production, a hormone that signals the liver to make glucose. Metformin primarily reduces glucose production by the liver and improves the body's sensitivity to insulin. This dual-action therapy is intended to be used in conjunction with diet and exercise.
What are the available dosage strengths for Janumet XR?
Janumet XR extended-release tablets come in three standard strength combinations: sitagliptin 50 mg / metformin 500 mg, sitagliptin 50 mg / metformin 1000 mg, and sitagliptin 100 mg / metformin 1000 mg. The sitagliptin component is immediate-release, while the metformin is formulated for extended release over 24 hours. Your healthcare provider will select the appropriate dose based on your individual medical needs and other medications.
