Type 2 diabetes treatment

Order a prescription for type 2 diabetes treatment

Diabetes type 2 is a condition that makes your body unable to process and store sugar correctly. There is no cure for type 2 diabetes, but it can be managed by medications such as Metformin. This medication keeps your blood sugar levels normal by helping your body to handle insulin more effectively, preventing any damage to your body.

If you’ve been diagnosed with diabetes type 2, you can reorder treatment with us.

After you have placed your order, our doctors will determine whether Metformin is the best option for you. Once your order has been approved, you will get your prescription in the post.

Your Superdrug Online Doctor prescription allows you to buy Metformin at any pharmacy in Ireland.

Use our online assessment to order. A Superdrug Online Doctor will complete your prescription and we'll post it to you.
