FAQ's on Pioli 15mg Tablet

Can Pioli cause heart failure?

Pioli can cause fluid retention which may aggravate or speed up heart failure. The doctor usually starts with the lowest available dose and increase the dose gradually while treating patients who have at least one risk factor for heart failure (previous heart attack, coronary artery disease, elderly). Heart failure is more common when Pioli is used with insulin.

Can Pioli cause bladder cancer?

Pioli may increase the risk of bladder cancer, though it is very rare. Immediately consult your doctor if you experience blood in your urine, pain when urinating or a sudden need to urinate, during treatment with Pioli. Pioli should not be used in patients with a prior history of bladder cancer or having bladder cancer.

What kind of medicine is Pioli? Is it like metformin?

Pioli belongs to thiazolidinediones class of anti-diabetic medicines. It helps control blood sugar levels by improving how your body uses a hormone called insulin. This is done by helping your cells become more sensitive to the insulin your body makes.

What time of day should you take Pioli?

It is usually prescribed once daily and can be taken at any time of the day but preferably at the same time each day. It can be taken with or without food. You should take Pioli exactly as prescribed by your doctor.

Can Pioli cause weight gain?

Pioli commonly causes weight gain which may be dose related. The reason for this weight gain could be fat accumulation. While, in heart failure patients it could be due to water retention in the body. Therefore, it is important to monitor weight in heart failure cases.

How long do I need to take Pioli? Can I stop the medicine for some time?

Continue taking Pioli as long as your doctor recommends to take it. Treatment for diabetes mellitus is long-term so you may have to take it life long. However, if you have to stop it then consult with your doctor who will suggest an alternative. Do not stop taking it without consulting your doctor as it may cause blood sugar levels to rise, which could be harmful to you.

Can you take Pioli and metformin together?

Yes, Pioli can be used with metformin where sufficient blood sugar management was not possible with metformin alone. This combination of medicines can be used in adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and overweight patients with poor blood sugar control.

Does Pioli affect liver?

Yes, Pioli may cause an increase in liver enzymes and treatment with Pioli should be stopped if liver enzymes increase. Hence, levels of liver enzymes should be periodically checked while on treatment with Pioli. Pioli should not be prescribed to patients with liver disease.
