\section*{10. Risk Mitigation and Safety}

\textbf{Key Medication Safety Concerns}:
\begin{itemize}[leftmargin=*,itemsep=0pt]
    \item \textit{Metformin}: Monitor eGFR every 6 months; hold if eGFR $<$30, during acute illness, or 48 hours before contrast
    \item \textit{ACE inhibitor}: Check K+ and creatinine at 1-2 weeks, then every 6 months; hold during dehydration/AKI
    \item \textit{Hypoglycemia}: Low risk without insulin/sulfonylureas; educate on recognition and 15-15 rule
\end{itemize}

\vspace{0.5em}
\textbf{Complication Prevention}: Annual eye exam, foot exam, and urine ACR; aspirin if ASCVD risk $>$10\%; BP and glucose control reduces cardiovascular, retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy risks.

\vspace{0.5em}
\textbf{Emergency Actions}: Severe hypoglycemia ($<$50, confusion) - glucagon then 911; chest pain/stroke - call 911; hyperglycemia $>$300 with symptoms - hydrate and call office; severe medication side effects - stop medication, call same day.
