A member asked:

Is there any latest medicune for diabates type 1 after amaryl+janumet. combination?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No. Need Insulin : Type 1 diabetes is a complete lack of Insulin thus Insulin must be given for survival. Symlin (pramlintide) is another injection that can be used with Insulin to treat type 1 diabetes. Amaryl+janumet and other oral medications are indicated for type 2 diabetes(insulin resistance). Please contact your physician for evaluation/clarification on your diagnosis/ treatment. Insulin/ symlin (pramlintide) also used in type 2 care.
