Francis: My name is Francis. I am from Phoenix, Arizona. What treatments are there for Juvenile diabetes and how effective are they?
Anna Haddal: Francis, the only available and effective treatment for diabetes is insulin.
In diabetes insulin cannot be produced by the Beta cells in the pancreas, and for that reason, insulin needs to be replaced. There are different types of insulin. They have different duration of action, different onset of action, and for that reason, patients need to diminish their insulin twice a day, four-to-five times a day, insulin can be also delivered to an insulin pump.
Additionally, healthy lifestyle with healthy food and routine exercise are very important for good glucose control in Juvenile diabetes.
