    Glossary Rosiglitazone

    medication for type 2 diabetes that improves insulin sensitivity

    Rosiglitazone, also known by the brand name Avandia, is a medication used to manage type 2 diabetes by improving insulin sensitivity. It belongs to a class of drugs called thiazolidinediones, which work by activating PPAR-gamma receptors to enhance the body's response to insulin, thereby lowering blood sugar levels.
