Frequently asked questions

What is Jazeta Novum used for?+
Jazeta Novum contains sitagliptin, a DPP‑4 inhibitor indicated for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. It is used to improve blood glucose control when combined with diet, exercise, and, when appropriate, other antidiabetic agents.
How does sitagliptin work in the body?+
Sitagliptin blocks the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase‑4, which results in higher levels of the incretin hormones GLP‑1 and GIP. These hormones increase insulin secretion and decrease glucagon release in a glucose‑dependent manner, helping to lower blood sugar levels.
What is the usual dose of Jazeta Novum?+
The dosage of Jazeta Novum is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s renal function, glycemic targets, and overall treatment plan. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and not adjust the dose on their own.
Is Jazeta Novum safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
The safety of sitagliptin in pregnancy and lactation has not been fully established. It should only be used if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus or infant, and this decision must be made by a qualified healthcare provider.
How do I order Jazeta Novum from GNH USA?+
To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com with the required quantity. GNH USA supplies hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.
How does Jazeta Novum compare with other antidiabetic drugs?+
Compared with sulfonylureas, sitagliptin has a lower risk of causing hypoglycemia because its glucose‑dependent mechanism requires elevated blood sugar to stimulate insulin. Unlike insulin, it is an oral agent, and unlike metformin, it does not typically cause gastrointestinal upset.
What are the storage requirements for Jazeta Novum?+
Jazeta Novum should be stored at ambient temperature, below 25 °C, in the original packaging to protect it from moisture and light. Keep the product out of reach of children and do not use it after the expiry date.
How is Jazeta Novum administered?+
Jazeta Novum is taken orally, usually once daily with or without food, as directed by the prescriber. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water; do not crush or chew it unless specifically instructed.
What are the most serious risks associated with Jazeta Novum?+
Serious risks include pancreatitis, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis or bullous pemphigoid, and rare cases of hepatic injury. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience persistent abdominal pain, rash, swelling, or jaundice.
Who should not use Jazeta Novum?+
Jazeta Novum is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to sitagliptin or any of the tablet’s excipients. Caution is advised for individuals with a history of pancreatitis, severe renal impairment, or significant liver disease, and it should be avoided in these cases unless a physician determines otherwise.
