Type 1 diabetes mellitus generally blood sugar stabilization can not stop insulin, type 2 diabetes mellitus if the insulin function is still good, you can try to gradually reduce or stop the use of insulin under the guidance of the physician.
1. Type 1 diabetes: Type 1 diabetes is caused by the absolute insufficiency of insulin secretion due to various factors. Since the islet cells in type 1 diabetes almost lose the function of insulin secretion, they must rely on exogenous insulin for supplementation. Therefore, type 1 diabetes mellitus can not stop insulin treatment even if the blood glucose is stabilized.
2. Type 2 diabetes mellitus: the main cause of type 2 diabetes mellitus is the relative insufficiency of insulin secretion and insulin resistance. in the early stage of type 2 diabetes mellitus, pancreatic islet cells still retain the function of secretion of insulin, and after the application of insulin, in the event of stabilization of blood glucose, try to adjust the oral hypoglycemic drugs under the guidance of the physician and gradually reduce or discontinue the use of insulin.
Patients with diabetes should reduce or stop using insulin under the guidance of endocrinologists to avoid blindly stopping the use of insulin on their own, resulting in blood sugar fluctuations and causing adverse complications.
