Abstract

Objective: Investigate if there is evidence that Pharmacotherapeutic follow-up is an effective tool to help to control laboratory parameters of patients in drug treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Brazil.

Methods: Were carried out searches in electronic databases LILACS, SciELO, Cochrane Library, PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, ISI/Web of Science, Scopus and Redalyc, using descriptors defined by PICO strategy. The articles found were selected based on their purpose of study and subsequently characterized in several ways. The results were analyzed in order to describe the influence of Pharmacotherapeutic follow-up in control of fasting glucose, postprandial glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin of Type 2 Diabetic Mellitus patients in drug treatment in Brazil.

Results: From six identified articles, five were selected due to be qualified by inclusion criteria established for this review. These articles came to studies carried out in São Paulo and Paraná states and only one of them presented good methodological quality. Analyzed one by one, the results of these studies showed evidences that Pharmacotherapeutic follow-up is an effective tool to help to control fasting glucose, postprandial glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin.

Conclusion: There is evidence that Pharmacotherapeutic follow-up is a helpful tool for the treatment of patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus who use drug therapy in Brazil.
