Piolon 15 Tablet 10 contains pioglitazone (15 mg), which acts on your body in the following ways:

• Activates PPAR-γ nuclear receptors: Pioglitazone is a selective agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-γ). By activating these receptors, it influences the functioning of genes responsible for managing glucose production, transport and usage.

• Reduces insulin resistance: This action of pioglitazone reduces insulin resistance in the liver and peripheral tissues. By doing so, it enhances insulin-dependent glucose disposal and decreases hepatic glucose output – processes vital for controlling blood glucose levels.

• Store Piolon 15 Tablet 10 at room temperature, ideally below 30°C.

• The storage area should be dry and away from direct sunlight and heat.

• As Piolon 15 Tablet 10 is used to manage type 2 diabetes, you should follow a balanced diet that's low in sugar. This helps control blood glucose levels and boosts the medicine's efficacy.
