  • Beyond A1C: Rethinking Diabetes Management with Continuous Glucose Monitoring

    Beyond A1C: Rethinking Diabetes Management with Continuous Glucose Monitoring
    2026/05/14
    In this episode, Ajit Johal and Dr. John Papastergiou shift the conversation back to one of the most pressing challenges in pharmacy practice - diabetes management. With more patients presenting in community pharmacies and limited access to primary care, pharmacists are increasingly on the front lines of supporting those living with diabetes. The discussion explores the growing role of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), the limitations of relying solely on A1C, and the importance of focusing on time in range and hypoglycemia prevention. John and Ajit also unpack common misconceptions around CGM, practical onboarding strategies, and how pharmacists can start small to integrate this powerful technology into everyday practice. From identifying high-risk patients to leveraging real-time data for better outcomes, this episode offers practical insights to help pharmacists improve care without adding unnecessary complexity. We are grateful to Dexcom Canada for their support of this educational program, helping to advance the knowledge and professional development of pharmacists. Dexcom develops continuous glucose monitoring technology that supports patients and healthcare professionals with real-time glucose data to help inform diabetes management. Their commitment to innovation continues to support the evolving role of pharmacists in diabetes care across Canada.
