Values to achieve:
To achieve good control of diabetes is important to define the values achieved by the patient or, in other words, the definition of therapeutic goals.
The definition of therapeutic goals is intended to keep the diabetic patients without symptoms related to hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia, blood glucose levels get as close to normal as the tolerable by the patient, and also control other risk factors for cardiovascular disease including pressure pressure and dyslipidemia. The ultimate goal is the prevention of acute complications, reducing the risk of chronic complications of diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
For users with diabetes diagnosed and on medication for diabetes, we provide pharmaceutical care service in the area of Diabetes, in order to help control the disease in conjunction with your doctor.
