- Can just one insulin injection a week change the treatment picture?
New Delhi: Increasing cases of diabetes in India are becoming a major challenge for the health sector. India is being seen as a major center of diabetes amid the increasing number of diabetic patients worldwide. According to estimates, by the year 2050, the number of people suffering from diabetes in the world may be more than 853 crore (853 million). In this situation, the importance of disease prevention, early detection and new methods of treatment has increased.
Meanwhile, a new possibility in insulin therapy is becoming a topic of discussion. Instead of having to take insulin daily 365 days a year, having the convenience of injecting just once a week can be a big change for many patients. However, medical advice and scientific evidence will continue to be important as to whether this treatment is suitable for every patient.
Dr. on diabetes remission. Special attention of Anil Bhansali
Former Head of Department of PGI Dr. Anil Bhansali has been working continuously in the field of diabetes remission for the past five years. Diabetes remission means that in some patients, lifestyle changes, weight loss, and medically supervised treatment can keep blood sugar levels under control for long periods of time, even without diabetes medications. However, this is not considered to be a definitive cure or complete eradication of the disease and therefore requires continued monitoring.
Important information will be available on World Diabetes Day
On the occasion of World Diabetes Day, Dr. Anil Bhansali will elaborate on the growing risk of diabetes, its prevention, new treatments and possibilities of remission. Meanwhile, the possibility and benefits of once-weekly insulin injections will also be discussed.
According to experts, a balanced diet, regular exercise, control over body weight and periodic blood sugar check are very important to keep diabetes under control. Early detection of the disease and proper treatment can prevent its serious effects.
