What are the recommendations by the American Diabetes Association for glucose control in patients with T2D?
The American Diabetes Association recommends a target HbA1c <7% for most adult patients with T2D. The American Diabetes Association, however, advocates for less stringent goals (eg, 7% 8%) for patients with a limited life expectancy, history of hypoglycemia, long-standing disease, or advanced microvascular or macrovascular disease when the risk and inconvenience of intensive control outweigh the potential benefit.
