Pharmacist prescribing for kidney care in type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether having a pharmacist prescribe kidney-protective medications works better than usual care for people with type 2 diabetes and early kidney disease. If you don't have a family doctor, you may be able to get these medications more easily through a pharmacist.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
