Diabetes is a chronic disease that impacts the quality of lives and its daily management turns out to be difficult: compliance of treatment, frequent measurements of blood glucose, adaptation of insulin needs, prevention of complications and / or their monitoring, etc. In addition, the psychological impact of diabetes must not be overlooked: studies have shown that people living with diabetes can feel really down due to the heaviness of the diabetes complications.

Beside this, it is often difficult for people suffering from diabetes to know whom to speak to, where to find appropriate information and advice outside of the medical world in order to feel less lonely in facing the disease.due to the burden of diabetes complications.

This is the reason why we have decided to create the Diabetic Corner pharmacies: easily accessible locations to the patient which are not intended to replace the role of specialists and physicians, but have been equipped with a comprehensive portfolio of products and services to represent a territorial integration of the specialized healthcare network in order to support people affected by diabetes with the daily management of their disease.
