Treatment of Diabetes

Treatment strategy of diabetes aims at keeping blood glucose levels near to the normal range. This treatment should be specific to every individual depending on the type of diabetes one is having. While Type 1 diabetes is usually treated with insulin, Type 2 diabetes usually requires management with diet and exercise. A variety of anti-diabetic medication, insulin treatment, transplants, surgery and herbal remedies are available which should be coupled with planned diet, physical exercise and blood glucose screening for effectively treating diabetes.
