Prescribing fixed-dose combinations of diabetes medications may reduce the pill burden many patients feel, according to new research published in Diabetes Care.
German researchers surveyed more than 3,800 patients with type 2 diabetes (more than 6 years) and 600 physicians about medication regimens. The vast majority of providers agreed that multiple pills made it harder for diabetes patients to adhere to treatment.
Most patients were taking 3 to 6 total pills daily. Seniors, half of whom took more than 6 tablets daily, felt particularly burdened, because many required assistance with taking their medications.
Most patients identified their medication by appearance, such as by the pill’s shape, size, and color. Two-thirds agreed that using the right medication becomes harder when its appearance changes, for example, because of a product switch. Half of the patients worried they would forget to take their pills or take the wrong kind or dose.
Physicians were well aware of the problems, and many opted to use fixed-dose combinations of medication to reduce the pill burden.
What Is Immunotherapy
Immunotherapy is a biotherapy which is designed by our doctors to treat the immune system damage. More than 95% of kidney diseases are related to immune system disorder, such as IgA Nephropathy, Lupus Nephritis, Diabetic Nephropathy etc.
Immune kidney disease is easy to relapse, because the current treatment usually focuses om the symptoms and complications of kidney damage, which fails to control the immune system disorder. Thereby, once patients have cold, bleeding or fever etc, their immune system disorder will flare up, which causes kidney damages come back.
Immunotherapy can rebuild a new immune system and uses the immune system to fight against the kidney disease, which can prevent the relapse of kidney damage from the root. To get details of immunotherapy, you are suggested to read the six steps of immunotherapy.
