Treatment for type 2 diabetes focuses on keeping blood glucose under control. Type 2 diabetes is a progressive disease. People with type 2 diabetes lose some of their ability to produce insulin each year. As this happens, a change in your treatment plan will be needed to keep your blood glucose in control. The diabetes pill that worked in the past may no longer be effective because of the lack of insulin.

Combination Therapy - adjusting your meal plan, exercise, and diabetes medications as needed, with the help of your doctor - helps you to do everything necessary to stay in good control and live a full life with diabetes.
