Danielle Daignault, PharmD explains that new cases of Type 2 diabetes in children doubled during the first year of the pandemic according to two retrospective studies presented at ADA 2021 Scientific Sessions. This is alarming as research now shows that pediatric type 2 diabetes is more progressive and is associated with earlier onset of complications when compared to adult-onset type 2.

Danielle Daignault, PharmD., explains the limited treatment options for Type 2 pediatric diabetes, current pediatric trials, prevention, and lifestyle modifications to address due to COVID-19.
