Severe low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) is a serious problem for people with diabetes. It can lead to dangerous falls, heart problems, memory issues, and even death. However, many healthcare providers don't recognize or manage this problem well. The investigators believe that creating a clear set of guidelines for preventing hypoglycemia, along with having a clinical pharmacist actively help high-risk patients, can make diabetes treatment safer.
In this study, the investigators developed a simple, evidence-based guide called "Hypoglycemia on a Page" (HOAP) to prevent low blood sugars. The investigators then tested it by comparing two groups of patients with type 2 diabetes who are at high risk for hypoglycemia. One group received active support from a clinical pharmacist using the HOAP guidelines, while the other group received standard care.
The main goal of this study is to see if the pharmacist's support leads to safer diabetes treatment. The investigators will also look at other factors, such as whether patients are prescribed glucagon (a medicine for severe low blood sugar), if they use continuous glucose monitoring, and whether they have worse blood sugar control or end up in the hospital for hypoglycemia. This trial aims to improve patient safety, health outcomes, and possibly lower healthcare costs.
