    medications that improve the body's response to insulin

    Insulin sensitizers are medications that help the body's cells respond more effectively to insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar levels. They are commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes by improving the body's ability to use insulin, thereby lowering blood sugar levels. Examples include metformin and thiazolidinediones (TZDs).
