- to improve glycaemic control in combination with a sulphonylurea and metformin when diet and exercise plus dual therapy with these agents do not provide adequate glycaemic control.

For patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in whom use of a PPARg agonist (i.e. a thiazolidinedione) is appropriate, TESAVEL is indicated:

- in combination with the PPARg agonist when diet and exercise plus the PPARg agonist alone do not provide adequate glycaemic control.
