Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), a dysfunction in the metabolism of glucose, is a burgeoning public health problem, the growth of which shows no signs of abating. This book begins with a short introduction to the disease, which sets the scene for a more detailed consideration of some pressing issues; notably the importance of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in people with T2DM and the implications this co-morbidity has for the medicinal management of T2DM.
