Summary

This study is designed to look at the effect of Pioglitazone treatment on the body's ability to burn food in order to produce energy.

Conditions

  • Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

Interventions

DRUG

Pioglitazone

During the double-blind, 12 weeks treatment period, subjects will self-administer study medication (pioglitazone or equivalent volume of placebo) 30 mg/day each morning. The dose of pioglitazone will be increased to 45 mg/day after 4 weeks if the fasting plasma glucose is higher than 100mg/dl or the HbA1C is higher than 7%. This dose has proven tolerability, safety and efficacy for type 2 diabetes and has previously been used at the Pennington Center in studies on pioglitazone.
