Keep your medicine and monitoring routine clear
Take diabetes medicines as prescribed, do not skip doses without medical advice, and monitor blood sugar according to your clinician’s plan. If you use insulin or often have low blood sugar, ask your care team how often to check and what numbers need urgent attention.
Plan refills before you run out
Bring your prescription, current medicine names, and any glucose meter questions to the branch. Ask about storage, missed doses, interactions, and side effects. Seek urgent care for severe low blood sugar, confusion, vomiting, dehydration, infected wounds, or very high readings with ketones if you have been advised to test.
Frequently asked questions
Can I stop diabetes medicine when I feel better?
Do not stop or change diabetes medicine without advice from your clinician. Feeling better does not always mean blood sugar is controlled.
What should I ask the pharmacist?
Ask about dose timing, missed doses, storage, refill planning, side effects, interactions, and whether a prescription review is needed.
