The Association of British Clinical Diabetologists, the Society for Endocrinology and the Federation of the Royal Colleges of Physicians of the UK are seeking to appoint two new members of the Endocrinology and Diabetes Specialty Certificate Examinations (SCE) Standard Setting Group.

Updated guidance on SGLT-2 inhibitors in type 2 diabetes published

ABCD is pleased to announce the updated guidance on SGLT-2 inhibitors in type 2 diabetes. SGLT-2 inhibitors are being used increasingly not only for better diabetes control with less risk of hypoglycaemia and favourable weight loss, but also for their cardiovascular and renal benefits in people with and without diabetes. It is hoped that the updated guidance will help non-specialists to use SGLT-2 inhibitors safely and in the right patients for maximum benefit.

Access guidance.
