If they have diabetes, don't be afraid to put them on three more drugs to control their diabetes. If they have heart failure, be sure to add a beta-blocker. And you know what? If that beta-blocker makes their heart rate go down too low, put a pace maker in. It's worth it if you can get them to stay on the beta-blocker.
