National Guideline on Diabetes Mellitus

Diabetes is a chronic lifelong disease. If undetected or uncontrolled, it can lead to life-threatening acute emergencies and long-term chronic complications leading to blindness, end-stage kidney disease, neurological complications, and cardiovascular disease. Research has proved that all these complications are largely preventable by early detection and good control of diabetes.

This guideline aims for the physicians of Bangladesh to enable them choose the appropriate treatment regimen for the management of their diabetic patients properly.
