Student pharmacists may hold the key to better diabetes control in older asian adults
NCT ID NCT06861491
First seen Jul 24, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether student pharmacists can help older Asian adults (age 50+) with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes improve their blood sugar through lifestyle coaching, education, and adherence support. Participants will receive non-pharmacological guidance from student pharmacists, and researchers will track changes in A1C levels and diabetes management understanding. The goal is to see if expanding the role of student pharmacists can lead to better diabetes control in this community.
