The medicine you take will vary by your type of diabetes and how well the medicine controls your blood glucose levels, also called blood sugar.
Diabetes is a condition that leads to high levels of blood glucose (or sugar) in the body. This happens when your body can’t make or use insulin like it’s supposed to. Insulin is a substance that helps your body use the sugar from the food you eat. There are two different types of diabetes: type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. People with either type of diabetes need medications to help keep their blood sugar levels normal. Link text
