Effective dual-action tablet for type 2 diabetes.
Competact is a dual-action treatment for type 2 diabetes, which might work for you if you’ve already tried metformin on its own.
Finding a diabetes treatment that works for you isn’t always easy – order Competact online for a proven treatment alongside tailored advice.
Competact is a daily tablet treatment for diabetes. It contains two active ingredients, each with a slightly different mode of action, and it should be used when metformin alone hasn’t been able to properly control your blood sugar levels.
Type 2 diabetes usually happens in adulthood when your body either doesn’t produce enough insulin, or is unable to use the insulin that it does produce as effectively as it should be doing. Treatments like Competact help you to control your blood glucose levels by both encouraging your body to produce more insulin, and helping it to use it better.
The two active ingredients in Competact, metformin and pioglitazone, work together to help your condition. Pioglitazone makes your cells more sensitive to insulin, which helps your body to be more effective at using the insulin that it produces, and metformin works by inhibiting glucose production and reducing its absorption in the gut.
These two actions together help you to reduce your blood sugar levels and manage your condition.
There’s only one strength of Competact tablets, which is 15mg of pioglitazone and 850mg of metformin. The standard dose is to take two tablets a day at separate times, but our clinician might advise you to take more or less of the treatment, which will change your daily ‘dose’.
