Addressing Medication Side Effects in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes
| The key to preventing DKA in patients with type 2 diabetes is to maintain good glycemic control. This may involve the use of oral medications or insulin therapy, depending on the individual patient’s needs. It is also important for patients to monitor their blood glucose levels regularly and to seek medical attention if they experience any symptoms of DKA. |

Managing medication side effects is an important aspect of diabetes care, as it can impact medication adherence and overall health outcomes. Patients with type 2 diabetes may experience side effects from medications used to manage their condition, such as metformin, sulfonylureas, DPP-4 inhibitors, GLP-1 receptor agonists, SGLT-2 inhibitors, and insulin. These side effects may include gastrointestinal issues, weight gain, hypoglycemia, allergic reactions, and others. |

| Sleep plays a crucial role in overall health and well-being, particularly for individuals with type 2 diabetes. Sleep deprivation or poor sleep quality can negatively impact glycemic control, leading to higher blood sugar levels and increasing the risk of diabetes-related complications. In this blog post, we will explore the relationship between sleep and glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. |
