Indications and therapeutic options for dual therapy in patients with Type 2 diabetes
Hypercholesterolaemia:• Atorvastatin – escalate up to 80mg, then refer for consideration of ezetimib
Erectile dysfunction: • Diabetes is a risk factor for erectile dysfunction but assessment and management of patients is similar • Medical, psychiatric, surgical, relationship, sexual and drug history• Clinical examination, including genital examination, blood pressure, heart rate and waist circumference• Serum lipids, fasting plasma glucose, recent HbA1c, morning testosterone and SHBG• Consider digital rectal examination and PSA
Combined oral contraceptive:• Diabetes poses no additional independent risk factor to venous thromboembolism to the established risk
