Long-standing diabetes sometimes becomes recalcitrant to older drugs. The new and latest generation of drugs is more potent in controlling blood sugars with heart and kidney protective properties. At Dr. Mohan’s Diabetes Specialities Centres, we also check on the insulin secretion of the patient and the functioning of the pancreas. Thereafter, a decision on changing to insulin is made, depending on the patient’s ease. They are also educated on the usage of insulin pens or pumps so that they can remain active without the problem of taking injections repeatedly.
