As the holy month of Ramadan begins, we extend our warmest wishes to all who are observing.
In line with this fasting season, PSS is proud to share the health information infographics and videos on how to manage diabetes during the festive season of Ramadan and fasting season. These materials were developed in anticipation of Muslims who came to the Wisma Geylang Serai event organised by the Health T.A.G (Test, Advice, Go) team.
This series of health education material covers on subtopics such as:
– Healthier eating habits during fasting season
– Managing chronic medications during fasting, and
– Recognising signs and symptoms of Hyperglycaemia and Hypoglycaemia (high and low blood sugar), and how to manage these symptoms
These materials are produced by Health T.A.G (Test, Advice, Go) Team in collaboration with Pharmaceutical Society of Singapore, and NUS Department of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences – with credits to Mr Akhsan Nawfal Bin Keyjohan as author and narrator, and Mr Benjamin Tan as production crew. PSS also would like to extend our special thanks to Dr Sueziani Zainudin, Dr Lum Zheng Kang, and Mr Muhammad Farhaan Bin Abdul Kareem who helped to review this publication.
May this special time bring you and your loved one’s peace, reflection, and renewed strength. Wishing you a meaningful and blessed Ramadan.
