About this study

This is a special drug use surveillance on long-term use of newly co-administered pioglitazone tablets (Actos Tablets) as part of routine medical care in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who have poorly controlled blood glucose when using an insulin product in addition to diet therapy and exercise therapy; this survey is designed to determine the safety and efficacy of long-term use of pioglitazone tablets (Actos Tablets) in the routine clinical setting in combination with an insulin product (the planned sample size, 1000.) The usual adult dosage is 15 mg of pioglitazone administered orally once daily before or after breakfast. Dose adjustment will be made according to gender, age, and symptoms with an upper limit of 30 mg.

  2. Change From Baseline in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c)

    Time frame: Baseline and Week 12, 24, 36, 52, and final assessment (up to Week 52)

  3. Change From Baseline in Fasting Triglycerides
