ACTOS (PIOGLITAZONE): NEW THERAPY FOR TYPE 2 DIABETES WITH NOVEL MODE OF ACTION LAUNCHED IN UK
“Type 2 diabetes is characterised by high blood sugar but also by lipid abnormalities, particularly raised triglycerides and low HDL (so-called good) cholesterol. This spectrum of metabolic imbalance related to insulin resistance together with raised blood pressure is the characteristic signature of most people with Type 2 diabetes. Any... view more...
