TZD Overview

TZDs, or thiazolidinediones, work by increasing the muscles cells sensitivity to insulin. Resistance to the action of insulin, or insulin resistance, significantly contributes to high blood glucose in type 2 diabetes. TZDs help to sensitize the cells to insulin to allow circulating glucose levels to attempt to normalize.
