What Diabetes Patients Need to Know

What is Avandia?

Avandia like many other drugs for Type 2 diabetes, GlaxoSmithKline's is meant to help patients lower the amount of sugar in their blood. Avandia and a rival drug, Takeda Pharmaceutical Co.'s Actos, are the two drugs in a class called TZDs, or thiazolidinediones, that are known in particular for helping patients who are resistant to the hormone insulin, which reduces blood-sugar levels.

What is Avandia (Rosiglitazone) used for?

Avandia, in addition to diet and exercise, improves blood sugar control in adults with type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes. Avandia can be used alone or in combination with a sulfonylurea, metformin, or insulin. Avandia can also be used in addition to a sulfonylurea plus metformin when diet, exercise, and both agents are not enough to control blood sugar.
