Piozer-G (15/2mg) 10 Tablets

Diabetes mellitus type 2 can be challenging to deal with, but certain drugs can help manage the symptoms. Pioglitazone 15mg and Glimepiride 2mg are two medications that can be used in combination to treat this condition. Pioglitazone increases the body's sensitivity to insulin and reduces sugar production in the liver, helping to regulate blood sugar levels. Glimepiride, on the other hand, stimulates the release of insulin from the pancreas, raising natural insulin levels and bringing down blood sugar. Taken together, Pioglitazone and Glimepiride can make a powerful team in combatting the symptoms of type 2 diabetes. It's important to note, however, that any drug treatment should be under the supervision of a qualified medical professional and be part of a wider approach to health that includes healthy eating and exercise.
