Core Tip |
During Ramadan, most Muslims have two meals a day: Suhur (before dawn) and iftar (after dusk). Medical staff should educate Muslim patients on safe fasting to ease difficulties for diabetic patients. Controlling blood sugar levels involves a multi-pronged approach with patient education, monitoring, medications, and insulin. Insulin therapy can be continued during fasting if adjusted to the patients’ needs. New medications like pegylated insulin, dual agonists, and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors offer additional cardiovascular benefits for diabetic patients. |
