I have verified Drug Today India-Ready Reckoner of Current Medical Formulations. Sitagliptin (generic name) is not produced in India under any brand name.

Zita-100. Generic name of the drug and the name of the pharmaceutical company which produces the same may be stated.

Dear Medfree,

You are right. I also stopped taking Januvia 100 since about last 15 days. Most of the time PP is OK but sometimes it is high. Trying to achieve good control by adding little exercise. Will have my Hba1c test on 15 th next month. Shall keep you posted. Thanks for your support all times.

Regards

Umesh
