No - you cannot reduce the Insulin. Pl try and bring the HbA1c to less than 7. In my opinion, you may need to take additional Insulin in the night. Howeer pl consult yr Doctor.

Generally insulin is better than drugs, unless you have insulin resistance. Cut down on intake of carbs and follow exercise regime. Soon your hb1ac will improve and you will be able to reduce your insulin and meds. Try homeopathic meds.
