This potentially lead to uncontrolled glycemia and early development of comorbid conditions, increasing morbidity and mortality rates. This could be attributed to the failure to effectively integrate clinical pharmacy services in different hospital wards, which is the case in virtually all hospitals in Ethiopia.
