    • Overview

      Patients with diabetes are also much more likely to suffer from cardiovascular disease than those without diabetes. In fact, cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death associated with diabetes – certainly a medical double jeopardy. The American Diabetes Association’s (ADA) recently published the 2017 Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes and included new recommendations on treating both diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Pharmacists are often the medical professional that patients reach out to for guidance and explanation on new pharmaco-therapy and individualized treatment. This program will review the ADA’s latest update to the Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes, review recent outcomes trials of antihyperglycemic therapies in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and outline evidence based treatment strategies to mitigate the risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with T2D.
