Abstract
The objective of this opinion paper was to identify and describe the role of pharmacists in ensuring safe and optimal management of patients with glycemic excursions in the inpatient setting. The role of the pharmacist includes involvement in admission medication history and reconciliation, formulary management of glucose‐lowering medications and devices, individual patient medication management, discharge transition of care, and interprofessional collaboration with other health care providers. Recommendations are based on review of published guidelines and literature focusing on the management of patients with hypo‐ and hyperglycemia in the hospital as well as during the time of transition to and from the inpatient setting.
