Each Poze tablet contains pioglitazone hydrochloride equivalent to can also be used in combina pioglitazone … 15 mg

Poze tablet 30 mg:
Each Poze tablet contains pioglitazone hydrochloride equivalent to pioglitazone … 30 mg

Poze tablet 45 mg:
Each Poze tablet contains pioglitazone hydrochloride equivalent to pioglitazone … 45 mg

Description:

Poze (pioglitazone
hydrochloride) is an oral antidiabetic agent that is used in the management
of type 2 diabetes. It acts primarily by decreasing insulin resistance. It
improves sensitivity to insulin in muscle and adipose tissue and inhibits
hepatic gluconeogenesis. It reduces circulating insulin levels and improves
glycemic control.

Indications:

Poze is indicated for type 2 diabetes mellitus (non-insulin dependant diabetes mellitus) as an adjunct to diet control and exercise.

Poze is recommended for monotherapy. It can also be used in combination with sulfonylureas, metformin or insulin when diet and exercise plus the single antidiabetic agent do not result in glycemic control.

Dosage:

Poze tablets can be taken once daily with or without meals. Skipping meals, while taking Poze is not advisable since this can lead to hypoglycemia.

Monotherapy:
Poze monotherapy is initiated at 15 mg or 30 mg once daily for those patients whose diabetes is not controlled with diet and exercise.
Dose can be increased up to 45 mg once daily for those patients who do not adequately respond to initial dose of Poze.

Combination therapy:
Combined therapy should be considered for those patients who do not adequately respond to monotherapy with Poze.

Sulfonylureas:
Poze can be initiated with sulfonylureas at 15 mg to 30 mg once daily. If the patient experiences hypoglycemia, dose of sulfonylureas should be adjusted (decreased).

Metformin:
Poze can be initiated with metformin at 15 mg to 30 mg once daily. The therapeutic effects of Poze are seen in combination with metformin in patients regardless of dose (low or high) of metformin which the patients are receiving.

Insulin:
Poze can be initiated with insulin at 15 mg to 30 mg once daily. While giving Poze in combination with insulin, dose of insulin can be decreased by 10% to 25% if the patient is hypoglycemic or if plasma glucose concentrations decrease to less than 100 mg/dl. Further adjustments should be done based on glucose-lowering response. If there is a particular risk of hypoglycemia, patients on insulin should be given 15 mg of Poze once daily initially.

Maximum recommended dose:
The maximum dose of Poze should not exceed 45 mg once daily.

Poze G

Generic:

Glimepiride, Pioglitazone HCI

Therapeutic Class:

Glitazone & S-Urea Combs

Composition:

Poze G Tab 30 mg/ 2 mg:
Each tablet contains 30 mg pioglitazone hydrochloride with 2 mg
glimepiride.

Poze G Tab 30 mg/ 4 mg:
Each tablet contains 30 mg pioglitazone hydrochloride with 4 mg
glimepiride.

Description:

Poze G tablets contain two oral antihyperglycemic agents used in the management of type 2 diabetes: pioglitazone hydrochloride and glimepiride. Pioglitazone hydrochloride acts primarily by decreasing insulin resistance. It improves sensitivity to insulin in muscle and adipose tissue and inhibits hepatic gluconeogenesis. It reduces circulating insulin levels and improves glycemic control. Glimepiride is an oral
glucose-lowering drug of the sulphonylurea class, which acts by increasing
the release of insulin from the pancreatic beta cells.

Indications:

Poze G is indicated as an
adjunct to diet and exercise as a once-daily combination therapy to improve
glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes who are already treated
with a combination of pioglitazone and a sulfonylurea or whose diabetes is
not adequately controlled with a sulfonylurea alone, or for those patients
who have initially responded to pioglitazone alone and require additional
glycemic control.

Dosage:

Poze G tablets are available as a 30 mg pioglitazone plus 2 mg glimepiride or a 30 mg pioglitazone plus 4 mg glimepiride formulation for oral administration. The maximum recommended daily dose for pioglitazone is 45 mg and the maximum recommended daily dose for glimepiride is 8 mg. Poze G should therefore not be given more than once daily at any of the tablet strengths.

General:

The use of antihyperglycemic therapy in the management of type 2 diabetes should be individualized on the basis of effectiveness and tolerability.

Dosage Recommendations:

Selecting the starting dose of Poze G should be based on the patient’s current regimen of pioglitazone and/or sulfonylurea. It is recommended that a single dose of Poze G be administered once daily with the first main meal.

Starting dose for patients currently on glimepiride monotherapy:

Based on the usual starting dose of pioglitazone (15 mg or 30 mg daily), Poze G may be initiated at 30 mg/2 mg or 30 mg/4 mg tablet strengths once daily, and adjusted after assessing adequacy of therapeutic response.

Starting dose for patients currently on pioglitazone monotherapy:

Based on the usual starting doses of glimepiride (1 mg or 2 mg once daily), and pioglitazone 15 mg or 30 mg, Poze G may be initiated at 30 mg/2 mg once daily, and adjusted after assessing adequacy of therapeutic response.

Starting dose for patients switching from combination therapy of pioglitazone plus glimepiride as separate tablets:

Poze G may be initiated with 30 mg/2 mg or 30 mg/4 mg tablet strengths based on the dose of pioglitazone and glimepiride already being taken. Patients who are not controlled with 15 mg of pioglitazone in combination with glimepiride should be carefully monitored when switched to Poze G.

Novafol

Generic:

L-Methylfolate

Therapeutic Class:

Oth Anti-Anaem – Folic Acid

Composition:

Each Novafol tablet contains
L-Methylfolate 400 mcg.

Description:

Novafol (L-methylfolate) which
is structurally analogous to the reduced and active form of folic acid
5-methyltetrahydrofolate (L-Methylfolate), is absorbed directly in the
active form that can immediately diffuses into the blood and is available
for its immediate biological action.

Indications:

Novafol tablets are for the
specific dietary management of impaired metabolic processes in those women
with distinct nutritional requirement for any of the following conditions.

High risk recurrent pregnancy loss
Impaired folic acid absorption and impaired metabolism
Hyperhomocysteinemia during pregnancy

Dosage:

Usual dosage of Novafol Tab is 1
or 2 tablets daily.For folic acid deficiency:

The typical dose is 250-1000 mcg (micrograms) per day.

For preventing neural tube defects:
At least 400 mcg of folic acid per day from supplements or fortified food should be taken by women capable of becoming pregnant and continued through the first month of pregnancy. Women with a history of previous pregnancy complicated by such neural tube defects usually take 4 mg per day beginning one month before and continuing for three months after conception

For treating high levels of homocysteine in the blood:

0.5-5 mg (milligrams)/day has been used, although 0.8-1 mg/day is appears to be more effective.
In people with end-stage renal disease, high homocysteine levels may be more difficult to treat, and doses of 0.8
15 mg/day have been used. Other dosage plans such as 2.5-5 mg 3 times weekly have also been used. Doses higher than 15 mg daily do not seem to be more effective.
