There is a thread called Januvia - side effects - here is the link:
viewtopic.php?f=26&t=16343
I am starting Januvia on Friday so I am also interested and will post on there any side effects I may have. I am most likely to have headaches I fear, as that is listed as a side effect and I already suffer from them.

I have been taking Januvia for about 6 months now. I initially lost some weight, 12lbs :mrgreen:
I also started on a lower carb diet at the same time. I also started testing before and after meals. After about 4 weeks my Hb1Ac levels had dropped to 6.5 from 7.6.
I have just had another Hb1Ac test done and awaiting on the results. But I have a feeling that because I have lapsed on the low carbing my levels will be up again :cry: I have also gained a few pounds, but still lost weight from my original weight.
The only symptoms I can recall were a bit of constipation for the first week or two and a slight feeling of nausea. But nothing that I couldn't live with for a few weeks.
