My husband is taking janumet, (sitagliptin and metformin) which is controlling his diabetes. he now has mild diarrhea. what can he do reduce the side effects?

Janumet (sitagliptin and metformin): Mild diarrhea is unlikely to be related to Janumet (sitagliptin and metformin). Your husband must see his doctor about the diarrhea. Please keep me informed.
