20/01/09 : Management of diabetes simplified
You may have seen in a recent issue of C+D that a rebranding exercise by Bayer Healthcare is aiming to simplify diabetes management for patients and healthcare professionals alike.
Under the ‘Simple Wins' initiative, Ascensia Microfill test strips have been renamed Contour test strips, bringing them into line with the Contour blood glucose meter. Similarly, Ascensia Microlet lancets are now known simply as Microlet lancets.
Initially prescriptions using the old names can be fulfilled but patients should be reminded to get their prescriptions changed in future, says Bayer. The products and their pip codes remain unchanged.
