Diabetes and COVID-19: How to Protect Your Health

diabetes-and-covid-19-how-to-protect-your-health

Anyone can get infected by COVID-19 but some people are more likely to have worse complications if they get the virus — including people who have diabetes. If you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes, it’s even more important than ever to manage your condition.

At Horsham Pharmacy, a local pharmacy in Horsham, Pennsylvania, we are committed to helping people stay safe and healthy amid the pandemic. Here are some tips on how you can protect your health:

  • Tips to Stay Safe
    The best way to protect yourself is to follow all of the universal precautions needed to prevent the spread of COVID-19. This means washing your hands regularly, delaying non-emergency hospital visits, and limiting your interaction with other people.

    If you need to refill your medication or buy new medical supplies, you should ask a friend or family member to get it for you.

    You can also take advantage of our free prescriptions delivery in Pennsylvania. All you need to do is fill out our online form and we’ll deliver your medications at home.

  • Follow your diabetes plan.
    You’ll also need to be sure to focus on your diabetes care plan and do not change your treatment plan without talking to your healthcare provider.

Carefully monitor your blood sugar, stay active, and continue practicing other healthy habits that help keep your diabetes under control.
