WHAT PIOGLITAZONE KRKA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Pioglitazone Krka contains pioglitazone. It is an anti-diabetic
medicine used to treat type 2 (non-
insulin dependent) diabetes mellitus, when metformin is not suitable
or has failed to work adequately.
This is the diabetes that usually develops in adulthood.
Pioglitazone Krka helps control the level of sugar in your blood when
you have type 2 diabetes by
helping your body make better use of the insulin it produces. Your
doctor will check whether
Pioglitazone Krka is working 3 to 6 months after you start taking it.
Pioglitazone Krka may be used on its own in patients who are unable to
take metformin, and where
treatment with diet and exercise has failed to control blood sugar or
may be added to other therapies
(such as sulphonylurea or insulin) which have failed to provide
sufficient control of blood sugar.
