    Poze Tablets (30 mg) – Pioglitazone HCl

    Composition:

    • Active Ingredient: Pioglitazone Hydrochloride 30 mg per tablet

    Indications:

      • May be used as monotherapy or in combination with other antidiabetic medications.

    Mechanism of Action:

    • Pioglitazone is a thiazolidinedione (TZD) that works by increasing insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues, primarily in muscle and fat. It activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ), which regulates gene expression involved in glucose and lipid metabolism.

    • The usual starting dose is 15 mg to 30 mg taken once daily. The maximum recommended dose is 45 mg per day, depending on individual patient response and tolerance.
    • Dosage adjustments may be necessary based on blood glucose levels and other medications being taken.

    • Common Side Effects: Edema, weight gain, headache, and respiratory infections.
    • Serious Side Effects: Risk of heart failure, hepatotoxicity, and increased risk of bladder cancer with long-term use.

      • Known hypersensitivity to pioglitazone or any of its components.
      • Active bladder cancer or a history of bladder cancer.
      • Severe heart failure or significant fluid retention.

    Storage:

    • Store at room temperature, away from moisture and direct sunlight.

    Precautions:

    • Monitor liver function tests before and during treatment.
    • Assess for signs of heart failure, particularly in patients with risk factors.

    Patient Counseling:

    • Advise patients to take the medication consistently at the same time each day.
    • Discuss potential side effects, particularly weight gain and edema.
    • Encourage lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise to improve glycemic control.
    • Instruct patients to report any unusual symptoms, especially those related to liver function or signs of heart failure.
