What to know about insulin treatment?
Abstract
Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic and complex disease with glycemic control at the center of its treatment and requires continuous monitoring and treatment of complications. Clinical studies such as DCCT/EDIC and UKPDS have shown that proper glycemic control is effective in preventing early and late complications of diabetes. Insulin therapy is a critical part of treatment for people with type 1 diabetes and also for many patients with type 2 diabetes.
