Janumet 50 1000 composition?

What ingredients are in Janumet 50/1000?

Janumet 50 mg/1000 mg is a fixed-dose combination tablet that contains two active ingredients:
- Sitagliptin (50 mg)
- Metformin (1000 mg, usually as metformin hydrochloride)

How is the drug strength “50/1000” interpreted?

The “50/1000” strength refers to the milligrams of each component per tablet: sitagliptin 50 mg plus metformin 1000 mg.

Does Janumet have other strengths with different compositions?

Yes. Janumet is marketed in multiple strength combinations that pair different sitagliptin doses with different metformin doses, while keeping the same two-drug combination (sitagliptin + metformin).

What about inactive ingredients (excipients)?

Tablets also include inactive ingredients (binders, fillers, and coatings), but those vary by manufacturer and specific formulation. The exact list for a specific product/lot is shown on the tablet’s prescribing information or packaging insert.

Want the exact label wording for your specific tablet?

If you share the country (or a photo of the “composition” section on the box/package insert), I can help match the sitagliptin/metformin strengths and the inactive ingredient list to that specific Janumet product.
