Treatments For Diabetes:
There is no cure for diabetes, but with careful, medically monitored management, diabetes can be successfully managed, minimizing complications and allowing people with diabetes to live a normal active life.
Type 1 diabetes is always managed with injected insulin. A new treatment that may be an option for some people with type 1 diabetes is pancreatic islet transplantation. This experimental surgery transplants insulin-producing beta cells from a donor into the pancreas of a person with type 1 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes is often managed with oral antidiabetic drugs, such as glipizide, glyburide, and metformin. Pregnant women with gestational diabetes may be treated with glyburide, and some people with type 2 diabetes or gestational diabetes may need insulin injections.
** Type 1 diabetes: Type 1 diabetes is a metabolic disorder that is also known by the name juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes.
** Type 2 diabetes: Type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disorder in which the body does not respond to the effects of the hormone insulin. This is known as insulin resistance.
