Active Ingredient & Action
PIOGLITAZONE (PIOGLITAZONE HYDROCHLORIDE) is a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) agonist, which activates the PPAR-γ receptor in the body. This activation leads to increased expression of genes involved in glucose and lipid metabolism, resulting in improved insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake in the muscles.
