Pioplus 2 Tablet

Description

Product Introduction:

Pioplus 2 Tablet SR is a combination medicine used to control blood sugar levels in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is designed to improve blood glucose control when diet and exercise alone are not enough. This medicine combines three active ingredients — Glimepiride, Metformin, and Pioglitazone — which work in different ways to help regulate blood sugar levels and improve the body’s response to insulin.

Pioplus 2 Tablet SR helps the body utilize insulin more effectively, lowers glucose production in the liver, and increases insulin sensitivity. This can lead to better control over blood sugar, reducing the risk of complications like kidney damage, nerve damage, vision problems, and heart disease commonly associated with poorly managed diabetes.

Salt Composition:

• Glimepiride (2mg)
• Metformin (500mg)
• Pioglitazone (15mg)

Uses of Pioplus Tablet SR:

• Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Pioplus 2 Tablet SR is prescribed for managing high blood glucose (sugar) levels in type 2 diabetes patients, especially when diet, exercise, and other medications alone are insufficient.

Benefits of Pioplus Tablet SR:

1. Better Blood Sugar Control: By combining three different mechanisms of action, Pioplus 2 Tablet SR helps maintain stable blood glucose levels throughout the day. This is crucial for preventing the complications of diabetes such as heart disease, kidney failure, nerve damage, and vision problems.
2. Helps in Insulin Utilization: The medicine helps the body use insulin more effectively, which is important for controlling post-meal blood glucose spikes and improving overall insulin sensitivity.
3. Reduces Excess Glucose in the Body: Pioplus also helps the body eliminate excess glucose via urine and reduces the production of glucose in the liver, both of which contribute to better blood glucose control.
4. Comprehensive Diabetes Management: The combination of Glimepiride, Metformin, and Pioglitazone provides a well-rounded approach to managing type 2 diabetes, especially when monotherapy or dual therapy has proven inadequate.

How Pioplus Tablet SR Works:

Pioplus 2 Tablet SR contains three active ingredients, each of which works through different mechanisms to control blood sugar:

• Glimepiride (2mg): A sulfonylurea that increases insulin secretion from the pancreas, helping lower blood glucose levels.
• Metformin (500mg): A biguanide that works by reducing glucose production in the liver, decreasing glucose absorption in the intestines, and improving insulin sensitivity in the body.
• Pioglitazone (15mg): A thiazolidinedione that enhances insulin sensitivity in muscle and fat tissues, allowing for better utilization of insulin and improved blood glucose control.

How to Use Pioplus Tablet SR:

• Dosage: Take Pioplus 2 Tablet SR as prescribed by your doctor. It is important to follow the dosage instructions carefully.
• Administration: Swallow the tablet whole. Do not chew, crush, or break the tablet.

• Missed Dose: If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and return to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

Side Effects of Pioplus Tablet SR:

Common side effects are usually mild and temporary. However, some individuals may experience:
