Piomed M 15 Tablet 10 contains two active ingredients that work together to control blood glucose levels:

• Pioglitazone (15 mg): Acting as a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-γ) agonist, it improves insulin sensitivity in fat tissue, skeletal muscle, and the liver, enabling your body to use insulin more efficiently.

• Metformin (500 mg): This is a biguanide that enhances insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues such as muscles, allowing your cells to absorb and use glucose more effectively.

• Follow a low-carbohydrate diet with plenty of vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins to help manage your blood glucose levels and improve insulin sensitivity.
