API Description: Pioglitazone (often as the hydrochloride salt, though potassium forms exist for research) is a thiazolidinedione drug primarily used with diet/exercise to improve insulin sensitivity for Type 2 Diabetes Management, helping control blood sugar, and potentially offering cardiovascular benefits like lowering blood pressure, but it's not for Type 1 diabetes. It works by activating PPAR-gamma receptors, making the body use insulin better and reducing glucose levels, but requires monitoring for side effects.
