Looking for help, advice and guidance about diabetes and the symptoms of diabetes? At Mid-Valley Pharmacy patients meet with pharmacists directly to identify gaps and needs in the patient’s diabetes care. The pharmacist develops a plan to assist the patient in managing his/her diabetes and discusses the healthy behaviors. A component of the health plan may include visits with a registered dietitian to discuss medical nutrition therapy.

Counseling diabetes patients on the proper use of their medications as well as needed lifestyle and diet changes can go a long way to helping patients adhere to their medication regimen.

Our pharmacists will counsel patients on the following key components of diabetes management:

  • Diet
  • Medication Management
  • Exercise
  • Lifestyle

Disease management programs for diabetes have become increasingly common. This is likely due to the high costs of diabetes complications, which lead to health plans spending up to four times as much on the care of persons with diabetes compared to the general population. Learn to manage your diabetes and avoid complications with the guidance of our expert pharmacists.
