Pronounced: ACK-toes Generic Name: Pioglitazone (pye-oh-GLI-ta-zone)
Actos is used to control high blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes patients where diet and exercise alone fails to produce results. This medication may be used alone or in combination with other medications prescribed by your doctor.
Actos works by increasing your body's sensitivity to insulin, a substance your body naturally produces to help control blood sugar levels, rather than increasing your body's output levels on Insulin.
DIRECTIONS AND USE: Follow the directions your doctor gives you for using this medicine.
MediNorth.com recommends that all patients become informed of the potential cautions,
side effects, drug/food interactions, etc. of taking this and other medications BEFORE using. This
information is generally available from your doctor or you can ask our pharmacists for information.
