New Diabetes Booklet Available
There's been a lot in the news lately about diabetes drugs. Consumers Union's public education project, Consumer Reports Best Buy Drugs, has produced an easy-to-read 16- page booklet that can help you understand the oral drugs (pills) used to treat type 2 diabetes. The booklet compares the drugs. Talk with your doctor, too, about which drug is right for you and can give you the best value for your health care dollar.

The booklet is available in English and Spanish, both as PDF documents.
