Program Overview
Pharmacists are often the medical professional that patients reach out to for the latest in drug information. With all the new products available for diabetes, it is very difficult for the pharmacist to keep up with the latest advances in medication. In addition, the newer medications require more explanation than in the past. This continuing education course gives the pharmacist a solid knowledge base to enlighten the patients on these new therapies with an emphasis on methods to help the patient control postprandial glucose.
