4. Improving adherence to therapy
One of the 6 tips for managing type 2 diabetes is the patients’ adherence to therapy. Studies suggest that people who suffer from diabetes face difficulties in managing their medication regimens and other self-management related factors. As a consequence, diabetic patients in most cases take less medication than required, including both OHA and insulin. Some results concluded that electronic monitoring systems were useful in improving adherence for individual patients. This monitoring system for insulin administration could inform healthcare providers of patient’s needs and offer better support.
