This medication is a combination of two types of drugs used to treat type 2 diabetes:
- Pioglitazone: Increases the body's sensitivity to insulin, meaning it improves the response of cells to the insulin already present in the body, which helps lower blood sugar levels. In other words, it makes cells respond better to the insulin produced by the body.
- Metformin: Works in three main ways: it reduces glucose production in the liver, reduces glucose absorption from the intestines, and improves the body's sensitivity to insulin.
Simply put, these two drugs work together in different ways to improve blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes.
