Diabetes Treatment and control.

Diabetes


  • Diabetes can be treated, and its complications avoided or delayed with regular screening and treatment.
  • People with diabetes should seek regular screening for complications to aid in early detection. This includes screening for kidney disease, regular eye exams, and foot assessment.
  • Only about 50% of people with type 2 diabetes get the insulin they need, often because their country’s health systems cannot afford it.
