May reduce blood glucose for 48 hours
Uncommon disorder causes fluid imbalance
Abnormally low blood glucose
Major nutrient that breaks down into glucose
Given once daily for hyperglycemia
Condition where the pancreas makes little/no insulin
Biguanide drug class
Production of large amounts of urine
Vascular complication of diabetes
Symptom of Type 1 & 2 diabetes
Chronic condition of hyperglycemia
Measures 3 month average of blood glucose
Includes inspection, for breaks in the skin
