About this trial
We aim to provide medical nutritional therapy to patients with type 2 diabetes who are on oral hypoglycemic agents or on basal insulin only and monitor the glycemic response with flash glucose monitoring or self-monitoring of blood glucose.
Specifically, this is a randomized, open-label, controlled study where half of the study participants will have FreeStyle Libre device on for 12 weeks and compare the change in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) value with the patients in the control group.
