4.2 Drug Indication

AVANDAMET is indicated in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, particularly overweight patients:

- who are unable to achieve sufficient glycaemic control at their maximally tolerated dose of oral metformin alone.

- in triple oral therapy with sulphonylurea in patients with insufficient glycaemic control despite dual oral therapy with their maximally tolerated dose of metformin and a sulphonylurea (see section 4. 4).


Rosiglitazone is indicated in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus:

as monotherapy

-in patients (particularly overweight patients) inadequately controlled by diet and exercise for whom metformin is inappropriate because of contraindications or intolerance

as dual oral therapy in combination with

-metformin, in patients (particularly overweight patients) with insufficient glycaemic control despite maximal tolerated dose of monotherapy with metformin

-a sulphonylurea, only in patients who show intolerance to metformin or for whom metformin is contraindicated, with insufficient glycaemic control despite monotherapy with a sulphonylurea

as triple oral therapy in combination with

-metformin and a sulphonylurea, in patients (particularly overweight patients) with insufficient glycaemic control despite dual oral therapy (see section 4. 4).


Rosiglitazone is indicated as oral monotherapy in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, particularly overweight patients, inadequately controlled by diet and exercise for whom metformin is inappropriate because of contraindications or intolerance.

Rosiglitazone is also indicated for oral combination treatment in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with insufficient glycaemic control despite maximal tolerated dose of oral monotherapy with either metformin or a sulphonylurea:

- in combination with metformin particularly in overweight patients.

- in combination with a sulphonylurea only in patients who show intolerance to metformin or for whom metformin is contraindicated.
