Sumario:Corticosteroids negatively interfere with glycemic control. We report a case of a patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus with poor glycemic control caused by coercion to intramuscular corticosteroid administration at work. The relationship established with the patient allowed her to speak openly about her working environment, allowing her to trust the information provided by her family physician ensuring that she rejected new attempts to medicate her with that drug.
