Thus, the purpose of the invention is to provide a technique for reducing Such side effects. The present invention relates to a medicinal composition, 5 and more particularly it relates to a medicinal composition DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION which comprises an insulin resistance-improving drug as a major ingredient and in which the side-effects including In order to solve the above problems, the present inventor edema, heart enlargement and anemia caused thereby are worked assiduously to investigate the cause of the above reduced. mentioned side effect in the insulin resistance-improving 10 drugs and found that in vivo vitamin B was relatively defi BACKGROUND ART cient due to administration of an insulin resistance-improving drug. It was also found that the simultaneous administration of the insulin resistance-improving drug with Vitamin B was Insulin resistance is a pathologic condition which requires effective in prevention of the above side effect. Thus, the an excess amount of insulin over the normal amount for 15 gaining a variety of actions of insulin at the level of cells, invention was completed. organs and individuals. This pathologic condition is a state That is, the invention provides a medicinal composition meaning decrease of the insulin sensitivity in liver, skeletal which comprises an insulin resistance-improving drug and muscle and fat tissue and characteristic in type II diabetes vitamin B or its derivative. mellitus with failure of insulin secretion. Insulin resistance is much involved in formation of a pathologic condition of BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE lifestyle-related diseases Such as hypertension or hyper INVENTION lipemia in addition to diabetes mellitus and impaired glucose tolerance, and its improvement is becoming clinically more As the insulin resistance-improving drug used in the important. medicinal composition of the invention, compounds having a 25 PPARY agonist activity are exemplified. More specifically, As drugs which can possibly be used as insulin resistance PPAR-Y activation-promoting compounds of thiazolidine improving drugs inhibiting insulin resistance, compounds type such as pioglitaZone, rosiglitaZone, CS-011, and the like, which have a Y-agonist activity of peroxisome proliferator and PPAR-Yactivation-promoting compounds of non-thiazo activated receptor (PPAR)(hereinafter referred to as “PPAR-y lidine type such as TAK-559, FK-614, and the like are activation promoting compound'), which is a nuclear recep included. These compounds, if required, may be converted tor, have been known and some of them have been employed 30 into Such derivatives as pharmaceutically acceptable salts of for type II diabetes mellitus. These compounds have a blood them.

The thiazolidine-type compound includes trogli On the other hand, vitamin B (thiamine) used in the taZone, pioglitaZone, rosiglitaZone, CS-011, and the like; and medicinal composition of the invention is a well-known the non-thiazolidine-type compound includes TAK-559: water-soluble vitamin, which has almost no side effect evenin FK-614, and the like. overdose and of which the cost is low. The vitamin B deriva It has been considered that these insulin resistance-improv 40 tives are also known, including, for example, fursultiamine, ing drugs primarily act on adipocytes through PPARY to benfotiamine, octotiamine, prosultiamine, bisbentiamine, accelerate differentiation of the adipocytes and inhibit an dicetiamine hydrochloride, thiamine hydrochloride, thia insulin resistance causative factor such as TNF-C. to improve minedisulfide, co-carboxylase, and the like. the insulin resistance. Details are not clear. In producing the medicinal composition of the invention, In this connection, the first launched insulin resistance 45 the above-mentioned insulin resistance-improving drug and improving drug in the world was a thiazolidine-type com vitamin B or its derivative (hereinafter, referred to as “Vita pound troglitaZone, but this was withdrawn because of occur mins B) are combined with a suitable pharmaceutically rence of serious hepatic disturbance. Subsequently, the same acceptable carrier, then mixed, and formulated into a desired thiazolidine compounds, pioglitaZone and rosiglitaZone, pharmaceutical preparation. were developed and at present these two drugs have been used 50 The amount of the insulin resistance-improving drug to be oversea as insulin resistance improving drugs; in Japan, combined for a dose unit of medicinal composition of the pioglitaZone alone has been used. invention is preferably from 5 to 300 mg, and the amount of However, there was a problem in the insulin resistance Vitamins B to be combined is preferably from 1 to 500 mg. improving drugs since they have other side-effects, i.e., There is no particular limitation in the combination ratio edema, heart enlargement, anemia, and Soon, particularly between the insulin resistance-improving drug and Vitamins edema. That is, in pioglitaZone, rosiglitaZone and troglita 55 B, and Vitamins B may be used in an amount of about 0.01 Zone, the side-effects such as edema and anemia have been to 200 parts by weight, preferably about 0.05 to 40 parts by observed in several percentage, and in pioglitaZone conges weight, for one part by weight of the insulin resistance-im tive heart failure has been recognized. This is one of the proving drug. reasons why they are not so used domestically in Japan More specifically, when pioglitazone hydrochloride which though they have a high usefulness as insulin resistance 60 is only one insulin resistance-improving drug available in improving drugs. Japan is used in the medicinal composition of the invention, a Such edema as a side-effect has been observed in all of the preferred combination is illustrated as follows. That is, piogli So far known thiazolidine-type compounds under develop taZone hydrochloride is incorporated in one unit dose of the ment; when the edema occurs as side effect, the administra pharmaceutical preparation in the amount of 15-45 mg, which tion has to be stopped in some cases, and in another case a 65 amount is a dose (oral administration) of pioglitaZone hydro diuretic is required; thus, these have big problems in using as chloride for once a day.
