DrSugar Answers: Postworkout Weakness?
DrSugar is in the house and answering your questions.
Dear DrSugar,
Sometimes after a rigorous cardio workout (one hour, doing intervals for the first half hour and steady pace for the second half), I come home and start feeling queasy and weak, then need to lie down. Sometimes I feel this way for an hour or more postworkout, well after I've showered and eaten.

- Sitagliptin (Januvia), the first in a new class of diabetes drugs called DPP-4 inhibitors, was approved in 2006.
- Janumet, a 2-in-1 pill that contains both sitagliptin and metformin, was approved in 2007.
- These drugs are taken by mouth and may be more convenient for patients than exenatide (Byetta), a similar drug. DPP-4 inhibitors do not cause weight gain and may pose a lower risk for hypoglycemia than some other diabetes drugs.
