Sanofi-aventis U.S. Establishes 'Diabetes National Alliance' of Healthcare Professionals to Help Meet Needs of Growing Diabetes Epidemic in U.S.

BRIDGEWATER, N.J., Jan. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sanofi-aventis U.S. announced today the launch of the Diabetes National Alliance to address the growing diabetes epidemic in America and to provide healthcare professionals with information on the standard of care for people living with diabetes. The Diabetes National Alliance is a nationwide initiative designed to raise awareness among primary care professionals about available practices in diabetes treatment and treatment options, including those of sanofi-aventis.

The latest reports from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that nearly 24 million Americans have diabetes, including an estimated 5.7 million who remain undiagnosed. Of this number, more than 40 percent of patients with diabetes are not in control of their blood glucose, leaving them at an increased risk of developing long-term diabetes-related complications. With more than 230 million people worldwide currently living with diabetes and this number expected to rise to a staggering 350 million within 20 years, it is imperative that treating healthcare providers are educated and informed about effective diabetes care.

"Most patients with diabetes currently utilize primary care physicians, whose specialty is neither diabetes nor endocrinology," said Dr. Paresh Dandona, director of the Diabetes-Endocrinology Center of WNY at Millard Fillmore Gates Circle Hospital, and Diabetes National Alliance Steering Committee member. "The Diabetes National Alliance provides physicians, diabetes educators and nurses tasked with treating the growing epidemic of diabetes in America with the knowledge and tools aimed at improving patient care."

The Diabetes National Alliance is a national program led by a multidisciplinary
