Diabetes can be said to be more familiar, because diabetes is a relatively common chronic disease, treatment will need a relatively long process, many people because they can not adhere to it, resulting in diabetes doctors will carry, diabetes will cause many complications, so I will talk about the treatment of diabetes.

Treating diabetes

Method 1: short acting insulin, also known as conventional insulin, is the most commonly used common insulin. It starts to take effect about 20 minutes after subcutaneous injection and can last for 5-8 hours. It is generally injected 15-20 minutes before three meals to neutralize the blood sugar rise produced by the food eaten in each meal.

Method 2: medium acting insulin, also known as low protamine zinc insulin, is a milky white turbid liquid. It takes more than one hour to take effect after subcutaneous injection, which can last for 12-14 hours. Injection of medium acting insulin before bedtime can maintain the basic level of insulin at night, avoid the peak of insulin at night, and reduce the occurrence of hypoglycemia at night.

Method 3: long acting insulin, also known as protamine zinc insulin, takes effect in 3-4 hours and lasts for 24-36 hours. The effect of long-acting insulin is weak and long-lasting, and the effect alone is not good, so it needs to be combined with oral hypoglycemic drugs or short acting insulin.

matters needing attention

Finally, I would like to remind you once again: diabetic patients should scientifically arrange staple food and non-staple food, not only pay attention to staple food and despise non-staple food. Although staple food is the main source of blood glucose and should be controlled, some of the protein and fat in non-staple food can also become blood glucose and become the source of blood glucose.
