Type 2 Diabetes Complications
One of the most challenging things about having high blood sugar is that you can't really feel it. But if your blood sugar isn't controlled, you could be heading down the road to serious medical problems in different organs in the body.
Take Action
Good care of diabetes including proper nutrition, physical activity and, for many people, diabetes medication may help prevent or delay diabetes-related complications. Be sure to:
- Control your blood sugar levels: Lowering A1c has been proven to reduce diabetes complications such as eye, kidney and nerve damage.
- Have regular exams with eye and foot specialists.
- Alert your healthcare provider if you experience any numbness, tingling, weakness or blurred vision.
- See your physician regularly to monitor A1c.
Starlix is indicated for the treatment of type 2 diabetes along with diet and exercise. Starlix is not indicated for the treatment or prevention of eye damage, heart attack, stroke, or kidney and nerve damage.
