Study Arms (2)
Pioglitazone
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants in the pioglitazone group were administered a pioglitazone tablet (15 mg) once a day. In the event of the side effects such as oedema, the dosage of pioglitazone was reduced to half or a quarter of the original dosage. Otherwise, we tried to increase the dose of pioglitazone to 30mg/day.
Control
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants assigned to Control group were treated with diet and exercise therapy or sulfonylurea (SU) or other additional drugs than pioglitazone.
