Brief Summary
Many people with type 2 diabetes cannot maintain target blood glucose levels when taking a single oral drug. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of vildagliptin, an unapproved drug, in lowering overall blood glucose levels when added to pioglitazone in people with type 2 diabetes not at target blood glucose levels on either pioglitazone or rosiglitazone alone.
