Comment:
Got a urinary tract infection in 2012 (I am male). Doctor checked my A1c which was over 13. Immediately went on 2x/day Janumet 50/500. My A1c has been at 5.7 - 5.9 since. I no longer check my blood glucose levels since my A1c is so good and stable.

Comment:
I started using JANUMET last month. Within the first week, I started having a problem with it. I had began to get ITCHY and HIVES. I spoke to my Doctor, she suggested that I keep using it and see if they go away. 33 days later, THEY HAVEN'T SUBSIDED and I returned using METFORMIN. I will tell as many people I can to NOT USE THAT MEDICATION....

Comment:
I am reviewing Janumet in case someone else has had blurred vision while taking it. I woke up with blurred vision after the 7th day on Janumet XR 100/1000mg. It is two months later and my vision is stilled blurred but has gotten better.
