What is Pizaccord?
Pizaccord with the active ingredient pioglitazone hydrochloride is a thiazolidinedione type of antidiabetic drug. It is used to treat patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. It works by increasing the body’s sensitivity to insulin to help control blood sugar levels. Restoring normal blood sugar levels can help prevent vision problems, nerve problems, kidney damage, sexual function problems and a loss of limbs. Proper control of diabetes may also decrease the risk of a heart attack or stroke.

How is Pizaccord used?
Pizaccord is usually taken orally once daily or as directed by a doctor. The tablets can be taken with or without food but should be taken with some fluids. Contact a doctor for the correct dosage as it will depend on the patient’s condition and their response to the medication. The recommended maximum dosage is 45mg per day. Do not discontinue the medication without consulting a doctor as the full effects of the treatment may not be felt for up to 2 to 3 months.
