Pioglitazone + Vildagliptin Uses

Pioglitazone+Vildagliptin is used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

How Pioglitazone + Vildagliptin works

Pioglitazone + Vildagliptin is a combination of two antidiabetic medications. Pioglitazone primarily acts on muscle, fat, and liver cells to enhance their response to insulin, making it easier for these cells to take up glucose from the bloodstream. It also reduces the production of glucose by the liver, which is a common problem in people with type 2 diabetes. Vildagliptin helps increase insulin secretion in response to meals while suppressing the release of glucagon, a hormone that raises blood sugar levels. Therefore, these tablets decrease blood glucose levels.

Upper respiratory tract infection, Headache, Muscle pain, Sore throat, Runny nose, Fever, Itchy rash, Trembling, Joint pain, Constipation, Edema (swelling), Diarrhea, Nausea, Heartburn
