The Pharmacotherapy follow-up (PF) is a useful tool in the provision of information and education in Type 2 Diabetes populations. This work evaluated the impact of the PF on the glycemic control of ambulatory diabetic patients. It was used the Dáder methodology , including a modular sanitary educational program. 71 patients participated having a mean of the blood glucose at the beginning of the study of 179.73 mg/dL, diminishing after six months of interventions to 139.5mg/dL (p<0.001). The PF increased the pharmacological adherence and decreased the frequency of the negative outcomes associated with medications. The PF positively impacted on the glycemia of the diabetic participants.
