Did you know that how medication is injected, where medication is injected and what medication is injected with is as important as the medication itself?
Other medications
In addition to medications used to help control blood sugar levels, your diabetes healthcare team may also prescribe medications for the following conditions:
- High blood pressure
- High cholesterol
- Weight loss
- Depression
- Nerve pain (peripheral neuropathy)
- Sexual dysfunction
Some of your blood glucose lowering medications may have additional benefits, such as protecting the heart or kidneys, so these may also be selected for reasons beyond reaching your blood sugar targets.
