Duetact 30/4Mg 30Tab

Duetact is a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes. It contains a combination of two active ingredients, Pioglitazone and Glimepiride, which work together to improve blood sugar control. This medication is used as part of a comprehensive system that includes diet and exercise.

Pioglitazone works by increasing the body's sensitivity to insulin, helping to lower blood sugar levels. Meanwhile, Glimepiride stimulates the pancreas to produce more insulin. By combining these two mechanisms, Duetact can effectively improve blood sugar control, reducing the risk of complications associated with diabetes.
