Everyday advice on blood glucose monitoring, foot care and staying prepared for low blood sugar.
Regular monitoring matters
Consistent blood glucose testing helps you and your healthcare team understand how your body responds to food, activity and medication. Keeping a supply of reliable test strips and lancets on hand makes this easier.
Look after your feet
Diabetes can affect circulation and sensation in the feet, so daily checks and a good diabetic foot cream can help prevent minor issues from becoming serious ones.
Be prepared for hypoglycaemia
Keep fast-acting glucose tablets with you in case of a hypo, and make sure people close to you know the signs to look out for.
Dispose of sharps safely
Use a proper sharps disposal bin for used lancets and needles, and return it to your pharmacy or local council when full.
Our pharmacy team is always happy to talk through your diabetic care routine and recommend the right supplies.
