The article in Diabetes Care explores the concept of polypharmacy in individuals with type 2 diabetes, focusing on the use of multiple medications and their appropriateness. The study found that polypharmacy increased from 53% in 2000 to 76% in 2020 among Danish adults with type 2 diabetes, with preventive medications for cardiovascular risk being the main contributors to this increase. The authors suggest redefining polypharmacy in type 2 diabetes to incorporate guideline-based appropriateness, emphasizing the need for individualized discussions around prescribing and deprescribing to optimize patient care.
