Product Details
Product Overview
Zita-Met 50 Mg/500 Mg Tablet is a fixed-dose combination tablet containing Sitagliptin 50 mg (a DPP-4 inhibitor) and Metformin 500 mg (a biguanide). It is a generic equivalent of Janumet (MSD) and is used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus when single-agent therapy does not provide adequate glycemic control.
How It Works
- Sitagliptin inhibits DPP-4, prolonging the action of incretin hormones (GLP-1 and GIP). This increases glucose-dependent insulin secretion and decreases glucagon release.
- Metformin reduces hepatic glucose production, decreases intestinal glucose absorption, and improves insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues.
Together, the two drugs target complementary pathways in glucose regulation for enhanced blood sugar control.

Common questions
Quick answers for the things people most often ask before ordering.
Is Januvia Generic - Zita Met 50 Mg/500 Mg Tablet (Sitagliptin + Metformin) the same as Januvia?+
Januvia Generic - Zita Met 50 Mg/500 Mg Tablet (Sitagliptin + Metformin) contains the same active ingredient (Sitagliptin + Metformin) as Januvia. It is manufactured in India by Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Ltd under WHO-GMP standards, which means the molecule and pharmacological behavior are bioequivalent to the brand-name version. The price difference reflects manufacturing scale and the absence of patent rent and direct-to-consumer marketing — not lower quality.
Can I legally import Januvia Generic - Zita Met 50 Mg/500 Mg Tablet (Sitagliptin + Metformin) for personal use?+
Many Western jurisdictions permit personal importation of unapproved foreign medications under enforcement-discretion frameworks — the US FDA typically interprets this as a 90-day supply, with similar windows in Canada, the UK, the EU, and Australia. We do not provide legal advice. See our Import Legality policy for country-specific guidance, and confirm your own jurisdiction's rules before ordering.
How is Januvia Generic - Zita Met 50 Mg/500 Mg Tablet (Sitagliptin + Metformin) shipped?+
Direct from licensed Indian suppliers via India Post International (registered/tracked) or DHL Express, depending on destination. Transit typically runs 2–3 weeks to most Western destinations. A tracking number is issued once the parcel is dispatched and the carrier has scanned it.
Why does LiberaCure only accept cryptocurrency?+
Card processors decline most international generic-pharmacy charges, so we route payment through NOWPayments (LTC, BTC, USDT-TRC20, XMR). Crypto sidesteps the processor block and gives you transactional privacy — your bank statement won't list the order. We do not store payment information.
Do you require a prescription?+
We don't ask for one. The supplying Indian pharmacy operates under Indian regulation and dispenses on its own authority. You are responsible for confirming the medication is legal for personal import in your country and for using it safely. We don't provide medical advice — we are routers, not pharmacists.
