A great idea that since the Commission on the involvement of pharmacists in the care of people with diabetes the German Diabetes Society has launched. The Idea is based on the idea that "people tell the pharmacist more than their doctor," and this appeal therefore so are destined to the diabetic foot care and the antidiabetic agent buys to interview on the condition of his feet. You may want to even a "Fußtag" set up at the PTA professionally trained personnel status of diabetic feet, including the footwear worn assessed. One sees the situation, even to himself.

On our website and this blog, we present such a treatment. There are very simple means by which to avoid the combined use many amputations (see eg blood disorders).
