Piohope M 15 Tablet SR contains Pioglitazone (Thiazolidinediones) and Metformin (Biguanides) are anti-diabetic medications that are used to reduce blood sugar levels in diabetic patients. Type 2 diabetes mellitus was previously referred to as 'non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM)' or 'maturity-onset diabetes'. Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body does not create enough insulin or when the insulin produced does not function properly. It can also arise if the body generates an excessive amount of glucagon. Insulin is a chemical that aids in the reduction of blood sugar levels, particularly after meals.

How it works-
Metformin and Pioglitazone are two drugs included in Piohope M 15 Tablet SR. Pioglitazone is a thiazolidinedione that acts by enhancing insulin sensitivity in the body.
