Pioglitazone + Vildagliptin

Uses

Pioglitazone and Vildagliptin are used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

How it Works

How Pioglitazone and Vildagliptin work Pioglitazone and Vildagliptin is a combination of two antidiabetic medications. Pioglitazone primarily acts on muscle, fat, and liver cells to enhance their response to insulin, facilitating the uptake of glucose from the bloodstream. It also reduces glucose production by the liver, which is a common issue in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Vildagliptin increases insulin secretion in response to meals while suppressing the release of glucagon, a hormone that elevates blood sugar levels. Consequently, this combination helps lower blood glucose levels.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Pioglitazone and Vildagliptin include upper respiratory tract infection, headache, muscle pain, sore throat, runny nose, fever, itchy rash, trembling, joint pain, constipation, edema (swelling), diarrhea, nausea, and heartburn.
