In this roundtable panel session, we are delighted to welcome the incredible Scott Kilpatrick, Laura Bree and Rodolfo Oliveira Leal, both (EBVS® European Veterinary Specialists in Small Animal Internal Medicine). We’ll be diving into everything related to feline diabetes mellitus. Is one type of insulin truly better than another? How effective is continuous glucose monitoring? And when should we consider SENVELGO® (velagliflozin oral solution)?
