Question
I just been prescribed
pioglitazone. Can I take this with insulin injections?
Answer
The use of Actos (pioglitazone) with insulin is of some concern, as a study
showed an increase in a cardiac side effect (congestive heart failure) in patients taking both medications
at the same time. Be sure to talk this over with your physician.
