Diabetes presents itself with other concerns besides just monitoring blood glucose. Preventing dry skin is key to avoid skin cracking which can easily allow bacteria to enter the body and then an infection from setting in. Even in the summer months this can be a problem, but it especially becomes problematic during the winter months. Be sure to keep the skin moisturized with a quality product. Not sure which product to use? Ask the pharmacist or staff at Island Prescription Center for a recommendation.
