This symposium aims to review the current state of the science in pharmacological management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), with a particular focus on de-prescribing in alignment with the American Diabetes Association guidelines. Learning Objectives: (1) describe the risk/benefit ratios for intensive glycemic control across the heterogeneity of the older adult population; (2) review characteristics of person, place, and time that serve as effective points of transition to fuel a conversation about de-prescribing; and (3) name current technologies, and current care pathway strategies that show promise for safe and effective de-prescribing.
