Actos Information
Uses
Actos is used, alone or in combination with other
medications, to treat type 2 diabetes in people whose
diabetes cannot be controlled by diet and exercise alone.
Actos is in a class of drugs called thiazolidinediones.
It works by increasing your body's sensitivity to insulin,
a substance your body produces to help control blood
sugar levels.
How To Use
Actos comes as a tablet to take by mouth. It
is usually taken once daily with or without meals. Follow
the directions on your prescription label carefully,
and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part
you do not understand. Take Actos exactly as
directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it
more often than prescribed by your doctor.
Side Effects
Actos does not usually cause hypoglycemia (low
blood sugar) when used alone, but it may cause low blood
sugar when used with other medications for diabetes.
If you have any of the following symptoms, eat or drink
a food or beverage with sugar in it, such as hard candy
or fruit juice, and call your doctor immediately. Symptoms
of low blood sugar include: shakiness dizziness rapid
heartbeat sweating confusion blurred vision headache
numbness or tingling of the mouth weakness tiredness
pale color sudden hunger
Overdose
In case of overdose, call your local poison control
center. If the victim has collapsed
or is not breathing, call local emergency services at
911.
Missed Dose
Take the missed dose as soon as your remember it. However,
if it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed
dose and continue your regular dosing schedule. Do not
take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
Storage
Keep Actos in the container it came in, tightly
closed, and out of reach of children. Store it at room
temperature and away from excess heat and moisture (not
in the bathroom). Throw away any medication that is
outdated or no longer needed. Talk to your pharmacist
about the proper disposal of your medication.
