Description
Method of Action
Glifix Tablet 15 Mg is classified as a drug used in diabetes and hypoglycemic treatment. It contains Pioglitazone Hydrochloride as its active component. Pioglitazone Hydrochloride belongs to a class of drugs called thiazolidinediones, which work by increasing the body’s sensitivity to insulin. This helps the body use insulin more effectively, leading to better blood sugar control.
Treatment Options
Glifix Tablet 15 Mg is primarily used for the treatment of Diabetes Mellitus and Type 2 Diabetes. It is an effective option for those who have not achieved sufficient blood sugar control through diet and exercise alone. Pioglitazone is indicated as second or third line treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, as described below:
As monotherapy – in adult patients (particularly overweight patients) inadequately controlled by diet and exercise for whom metformin is inappropriate because of contraindications or intolerance.
As dual oral therapy in combination with metformin, in adult patients (particularly overweight patients) with insufficient glycaemic control despite maximal tolerated dose of monotherapy with metformin.
As triple oral therapy in combination with metformin and a sulphonylurea, in adult patients (particularly overweight patients) with insufficient glycaemic control despite dual oral therapy.
Pioglitazone is also indicated for combination with insulin in type 2 diabetes mellitus adult patients with insufficient glycaemic control on insulin for whom metformin is inappropriate because of contraindications or intolerance.
