[Binnoor]

If your type 2, is it enough to do diet without medication?

Don't stop taking your meds without seeking medical advice from your GP or Diabetes Nurse Specialist. It's wise to follow medical guidance first.

Type 2 diabetes can be controlled by diet and exercise in initial stages. About 60% of patients on monotherapy, may have worsening metabolic control during the first 5 years of therapy and concurrent use of 2 or more medications with different mechanisms of action, may be necessary. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends that persons, whose HbA1c is 9% or more, require dual therapy. Treatment includes education to help you understand the nature of diabetes, your treatment options and the need for regular follow up.
