PIOGLIT 30 MG – 10 TABLET

PIOGLIT 30 MG is designed to manage type 2 diabetes by enhancing the body’s sensitivity to insulin. This helps lower blood sugar levels and improve glycemic control. It is particularly useful for patients who are not adequately controlled with diet, exercise, or other medications. By targeting insulin resistance, PIOGLIT 30 MG contributes to better overall glucose management and helps reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications.

Usage Instructions:
Consult Your Doctor: Follow your healthcare provider’s dosage instructions carefully.
Dosage: Typically, take one 30 mg tablet once daily with or without food.
Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew.
Missed Dose: If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose. Do not double up on doses.
Medicinal Advantages:
Effective Blood Sugar Control: Helps manage blood glucose levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.
Reduces Insulin Resistance: Improves the body’s ability to use insulin effectively.
Long-Term Diabetes Management: Supports long-term control of type 2 diabetes, reducing the risk of complications.
Mechanism of Action:
PIOGLIT 30 MG works by activating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-gamma), a receptor involved in glucose and lipid metabolism. This activation enhances insulin sensitivity in muscle and fat tissues, allowing for better glucose uptake and reduced insulin resistance. By addressing the root cause of insulin resistance, PIOGLIT 30 MG helps regulate blood sugar levels more effectively.

Off-Label Uses:
PIOGLIT 30 MG may be explored for conditions related to insulin resistance, such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, its primary use is for managing type 2 diabetes. Always consult a healthcare provider before using it for off-label purposes.

Expert Advice:
For optimal results with PIOGLIT 30 MG, adhere to your prescribed dosage and maintain a balanced diet and regular exercise routine. Monitor your blood sugar levels regularly and attend follow-up appointments with your healthcare provider to track progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

Precautions:
Liver Function: Regular liver function tests are recommended as PIOGLIT 30 MG can affect liver enzymes. Notify your doctor if you experience symptoms like jaundice or dark urine.
Heart Failure Risk: Use with caution in patients with heart failure or a history of heart problems, as it may exacerbate these conditions.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, as the safety of PIOGLIT 30 MG in these situations is not fully established.
Storage Conditions:
Store PIOGLIT 30 MG at room temperature, between 20°C and 25°C (68°F to 77°F). Keep the tablets in their original packaging, away from moisture and direct light. Keep out of reach of children.
