Actos, also sold generically as its active ingredient, Pioglitazone, is a oral diabetic medicine that helps control blood sugar levels in those with type two diabetes. It is used together with diet and exercise to reach full effectiveness. This is not a medication used to treat diabetes type one.  This medication may be used alone or with other medicines such as insulin, metformin, or sulfonylurea agents.

Pioglitazone works by assisting your body with how to use the insulin (a hormone) it creates in the pancreas. Insulin is what allows the body to use sugar (medically referred to as glucose) from the food you eat and turn it into energy, or to store it for future needs. It also keeps your blood sugar from getting too high. So when your body is not doing this correctly (in other words, when you have diabetes type two) that is when one would be prescribed Pioglitazone.

This medication is available in 15MG, 30MG and 45MG in both brand and generic choice.
