CGM Benefits, Limitations in Patients With Diabetes, Kidney Disease
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in patients with diabetes. The incidence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) secondary to diabetes was estimated to be 47% in 2017. Learn more about a recent review that explored the use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in the management of patients with diabetes and CKD/ESRD.

Using Medication Regimen Complexity to Target Community Pharmacy Services

However, given the busy work environment of most retail pharmacies, time constraints limit the pharmacist's ability to be fully engaged. In order to have the greatest impact, pharmacists should target their efforts to those patients most at risk. Learn more about tools used in determining risk stratification.

Exploring Risks of Inappropriate Pediatric Antibiotic Prescriptions
The risks associated with the inappropriate use of antibiotics include the occurrence of adverse drug events (ADEs) and increased healthcare expenditures; however, evidence is limited in the outpatient setting on the potential for ADEs, especially among children. Learn more about a recent study that evaluates comparative safety and national-level annual attributable healthcare expenditures associated with inappropriate outpatient antibiotic prescriptions for children.
