Question
My father-in-law has been suffering with diabetes for years, and he has
heard that apparently there are some kind of pills out there to replace the
needles. Are there any pills to treat diabetes instead of the needles?
Answer
Yes, there are numerous pills for the type of diabetes that's called
type
2 diabetes.
Many of the current pills are listed at
Type 2 diabetes at the
Diabetes Monitor.
However, if your father-in-law has what's called
type 1
diabetes,
insulin is the only recommended treatment.
