Features of management and treatment of elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus by L. Yu. Morgunov, E. V. Zemskova

“…The elderly population varies greatly in functional and cognitive abilities. These factors, along with an increased risk of hypoglycemia, falls and concomitant diseases, complicate the development of treatment regimens, therefore it is necessary to use a personality-oriented approach, minimizing the risk of excessive or insufficient therapy of diabetes, since the use of antidiabetic drugs in the elderly is associated with significant risk. …”
