DUETACT is a combination medication consisting of a thiazolidinedione and a sulfonylurea, prescribed as a supplement to diet and exercise to enhance blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus when it is suitable to use both pioglitazone and glimepiride. It is not intended for the treatment of type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis.

Dosage and Administration

  • Initial Dose Customization: Your starting dose of DUETACT should be tailored to fit your current treatment plan. Your healthcare provider will determine the best dose for you.

  • Daily Administration: Take DUETACT once daily with meals to help manage your blood sugar levels effectively.
  • Liver Tests: Before you start taking DUETACT, your doctor will conduct liver tests. If the results are abnormal, they will take appropriate actions, such as investigating the cause and treating it if possible. Routine liver test monitoring is not necessary for patients without liver disease.
