Hi,
Of the medicines that you mentioned, Janumet is well-known to cause loose motions which are often foul-smelling. If the side-effect is causing you problems, you can discuss with your doctor alternative medicines for diabetes. Please do not make any changes yourself without consulting with your doctor.
Best wishes.
