Diabetes

Diabetes occurs when a person's body doesn't make enough insulin or doesn't use
insulin the right way. Insulin helps your cells convert blood sugar (also called glucose)
into energy. Diabetes causes the sugar to build up in your blood.

Diabetes can generally be classified as type 1 or type 2. If you have type 1 diabetes,
your body makes little or no insulin. If you have type 2 diabetes, your body makes some
insulin but can't use it properly or doesn't make enough to control your blood sugar level.
It can be stated that most adults who have diabetes have type 2 diabetes.

The goal of diabetes treatment is to keep your blood sugar level as close to normal as
possible--not too high (called hyperglycemia) or too low (called hypoglycemia).

The first step is to have a healthy diet and to exercise. This may mean youll need to
change your diet and exercise habits. Youll also have to watch your weight, or even lose
weight, to keep your blood sugar level as normal as possible. Your doctor will talk to you
about the types of food you should eat and how much exercise youll need every week.

Regularly checking your blood sugar is a key to helping you control it. Blood sugar
checks can help you see how food, exercise and insulin or medicine affects your level.
Checking your blood sugar also allows you and your doctor to change your treatment
plan if needed.

Sometimes diet and exercise alone cant keep your blood sugar at a normal level.
Doctors generally say that when diet and exercise dont work, other treatments should
be taken into account, such as medicine or insulin.

There are several types of medicine that can help you control your blood sugar level.
Some medicines are pills that you take by mouth (orally). Oral medicine doesnt work for
everyone, though. Some people need to take insulin. If you need insulin, youll have to
give yourself a shot (either with a syringe or with an insulin pen). Most people who have
type 2 diabetes start with an oral medicine. Your doctor will tell you which type of
medicine you should take and why.

Five types of diabetes medicine are available in pill form: sulfonylureas, biguanides,
thiazolidinediones, glucosidase inhibitors and meglitinides. Each medicine has good
points and bad points. Your doctor will decide which medicine is right for you.

Your doctor may prescribe a combination of 2 or even 3 types of medicine to help control
your blood sugar levels. Some combinations are available together in one pill. Some of
these include a combination of a thiazolidinedione and a biguanide (Avandamet and
ACTOplus Met) or a sulfonylurea and a biguanide (Glucovance and Metaglip).
