CGM reveals differences beyond HbA1c.

In GRADE study :
📊 Liraglutide & sitagliptin → highest Time in Range
⚠️ Glimepiride → most hypoglycaemia & variability
📉 Incretin therapies → lowest glucose variability (%CV)

CGM metrics provide deeper insight than HbA1c alone, helping personalise safer diabetes care.

What are “prescribing cascades”? This illustrative case study describes a woman with type 2 diabetes who experiences an inadvertent prescribing cascade, and the actions taken to reduce the resulting polypharmacy and adverse effects.

@ithinkwellHugh I don't consider myself a perfectionist but it would usually annoy me. Interesting that today I find it reassuring so wonder what that means?!

Participant Sue: "I’ve always found it difficult to tell when I might experience a hypo so I’m extremely happy to be on this trial & would encourage others to take part too."
