Leicester Diabetes Centre responds to NICE NG28 consultation

Aug 21

Professor Melanie Davies, Co-Director of Leicester Diabetes Centre, said:

“We welcome the launch of the consultation on the updated NICE guideline NG28 for the management of type 2 diabetes. The focus on a more person-centred approach reflects what we have long championed at the Leicester Diabetes Centre, ensuring care is tailored to individual needs and preferences.
“As co-chair of the ADA/EASD Consensus, we have championed this personalised approach since 2018, based on evidence in the field, so it’s encouraging to see the recognition of GLP-1 receptor agonists, which not only improve blood glucose but also support weight management and cardiovascular health. This aligns closely with our research and education programmes, which focus on helping people access the most effective treatments at the right time.
"We look forward to contributing to the consultation and supporting the implementation of guidance that will improve outcomes for people living with type 2 diabetes.”
