Competact

“Competact is typically prescribed for adults living with type 2 diabetes mellitus when blood sugar control requires a combination therapy approach involving pioglitazone and metformin. It is prescribed following a clinical assessment and ongoing monitoring by a healthcare professional.” – Rachael Clarke MRCPharm MFRPSI FRSPH (GPHC Number: 2061366)
