Pioglit G Tablet, which contains Pioglitazone and Glimepiride, can be substituted with other combination tablets containing the same ingredients, available under different brand names such as Pioz G or Amaryl P. Pioglitazone may carry a minimal risk of bladder cancer, but your doctor will have considered this before prescribing it. Your mother should take Glimisave MV 2 Tablet only with other diabetes medications as advised by her doctor.
