New Guidelines on Hypoglycemia Management from Diabetes Canada Diving Into Diabetes

    • Health & Fitness

Hypoglycemia associated with commonly used diabetes medications can be distressing and potentially lethal. What are the latest recommendations on prevention and treatment of hypoglycemia from the Diabetes Canada Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG)?
Our host, Dr. Alexandria Ratzki-LeeWing, takes a deeper look into this topic together with Dr. Stewart Harris, a family doctor and professor at Western University in London.
This episode discusses highlights from the 2023 CPG chapter updates on hypoglycemia in adults. Our speakers explore how guidance on hypoglycemia has evolved in these new recommendations, and its impact on diabetes care for both people living with diabetes and clinicians.
They also touch on practical strategies to reduce hypoglycemia risk, and offer their perspectives on topics that may be expanded on in future CPG iterations.
