Is there a generic version of januvia?

Is there a generic version of Januvia (sitagliptin)?

Yes. Januvia’s active ingredient is sitagliptin, and generic sitagliptin products are available in the U.S. [1].

What name would I see instead of Januvia?

Generic versions are usually sold as “sitagliptin” (often with a strength like 25 mg, 50 mg, or 100 mg) rather than “Januvia” [1].

Is it the same medicine, or a different drug?

A generic sitagliptin product should be the same type of drug (same active ingredient) and is designed to match Januvia’s key characteristics, though inactive ingredients can vary. The key point is the ingredient: sitagliptin [1].
