Pediatric Diabetes

Diabetes is a chronic illness characterized by the body’s inability to produce insulin due to the autoimmune destruction of the beta cells in the pancreas. Most pediatric patients with diabetes have type 1 and a lifetime dependence on exogenous insulin. Diabetes requires an age-specific approach, taking into account the needs and characteristics related to specific developmental stages. Variable eating patterns and physical activity, along with the limited ability to communicate symptoms of hypoglycemia/hyperglycemia are the main challenges in very young children. Metformin and insulin are the only agents approved for the management of type 2 diabetes in adolescents. Therefore, when glycemic targets are not reached, insulin is the only additional approved therapeutic option.
