Every November, we come together to recognize Diabetes Awareness Month a time to raise awareness, support those living with diabetes, and highlight the importance of prevention and early detection. At Palms Pharmacy, we’re committed to helping our community take charge of their health through education, screenings, and personalized care.

Why Diabetes Awareness Matters

Diabetes affects over 38 million Americans, and many people don’t realize they’re at risk. Early detection and proper management are key to preventing serious complications such as heart disease, kidney damage, vision loss, and nerve problems.


The good news? With lifestyle changes, routine monitoring, and support from your healthcare team, diabetes can be managed effectively and in many cases, prevented.

How Palms Pharmacy Can Help

Our pharmacy team is here to be your partner in diabetes care. We offer:

  • 💊 Medication counseling to ensure you understand how and when to take your prescriptions.
  • 🩸 Blood glucose monitoring supports training on using your glucometer or continuous glucose monitor (CGM).
  • 🧠 Lifestyle and nutrition guidance to help balance blood sugar naturally.
  • 💉 Immunizations recommended for people with diabetes, such as flu and pneumonia shots.
  • 💚 Personalized supplement recommendations to support your overall health and energy.

If you’re managing diabetes or have questions about your risk, talk to one of our pharmacists today. We’re here to help you find the right tools, resources, and support to stay healthy and confident.

Know the Warning Signs

Common symptoms of diabetes may include:

  • Increased thirst or hunger
  • Frequent urination
  • Unexplained weight loss
  • Blurred vision
  • Fatigue or slow healing wounds

If you experience any of these symptoms, schedule a check-up with your provider or ask about our point-of-care testing services at Palms Pharmacy
