Abstract

Iatrogenic hypoglycemia is a complication of diabetes treatment that can cause harm and prevent optimal glycemic control. The problem can be minimized through the identification of risk factors, use of tools, appropriate drug regimens, and education. Every effort needs to be made to help minimize the risk and prevent the associated complications.
