Product Details

Piozer 45mg Tablets feature pioglitazone HCl, a potent thiazolidinedione used to manage type 2 diabetes mellitus. This medication works by enhancing the body's insulin sensitivity, thereby improving glucose uptake and reducing hepatic glucose output. Unlike insulin secretagogues, 45mg Tablets act through the activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-γ), which regulates insulin-responsive genes involved in glucose and lipid metabolism. This helps in managing blood sugar levels effectively when combined with diet and exercise.

Purposes

Piozer 45mg Tablets are prescribed as an adjunct to diet and exercise to help control blood glucose levels in adults with type 2 diabetes, particularly for those who are overweight. The medication is designed to enhance insulin sensitivity, contributing to better glycemic control and overall management of diabetes.
