Once HbA1c and treatment are stable, we should measure it every 6 months.If HbA1c is unreliable, for example because of abnormal haemoglobin or altered red cell turnover, we should use alternative methods. These include quality-controlled plasma glucose profiles, total glycated haemoglobin if abnormal haemoglobins are present, or fructosamine.If there is a mismatch between HbA1c and other glucose readings, we should investigate and seek specialist advice if needed.Now let’s talk about targets.We should agree an individual HbA1c target with each person. This should be a shared decision. We should encourage people to reach and maintain their target, unless doing so causes adverse effects, including hypoglycaemia, or reduces their quality of life.For people managed with lifestyle alone, or with medicines that do not cause hypoglycaemia, we should support them to aim for an HbA1c of 48 mmol per mol, or 6.5 percent.For people ...
