Program Overview
This Clinical Minutes Satellite Symposium is designed as a case-based learning program to empower clinical pharmacists who actively manage people with T2DM. An interactive discussion among a clinical pharmacist, a nurse practitioner, a primary care provider, and a patient, will highlight the challenges associated with managing diabetes along with obesity and CV risk. The program will highlight the importance of timely treatment intensification, weight management as a core component of diabetes care, and CV risk reduction through guideline-directed therapeutic approaches. Attendees will walk away with practical strategies for integrating newer treatments (such as GLP-1 receptor agonists and SGLT2 inhibitors) into practice, with the goal of optimizing patient outcomes, reducing the risk of long-term complications, and promoting overall health and quality of life for individuals living with T2DM.
Target Audience
This activity is intended for US-based clinical pharmacists who actively manage with T2DM in primary care settings and/or have a Collaborative Drug Therapy Management agreement in primary care settings.
Learning Objectives
Upon the completion of this program, attendees should be able to:
- Apply guideline recommendations to ensure timely treatment intensification for patients who require escalation of therapy in the treatment of T2DM
- Implement treatment strategies that prioritize weight management alongside overall glucose control for patients with T2DM
- Summarize evidence-based treatment recommendations for patients with T2DM at high risk of CV disease
