Pioglitazone + Metformin

Pioglitazone + Metformin is a prescription diabetes medicine that combines two active ingredients in one tablet. Pioglitazone helps the body use insulin more effectively, while metformin lowers sugar made by the liver and reduces sugar absorption from food.

It is used along with diet and exercise to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes. This medicine may not be suitable for everyone, especially people with kidney problems, heart failure, or a history of certain bladder issues. Low blood sugar can happen, particularly when used with other diabetes medicines.
