I appreciate this wonderful session, sir. I have a doubt, but it might be silly 😅. Are there any kind of protocol or guideline for when to stop taking insulin after achieving satisfactory glycemic control with both insulin and oral medications in type 2 DM? Or do we have to take insulin forever once we start? Thank you in advance.

Sir, what about OHAs with insulin initiation ?
We should stop sulfonylureas and pioglitazone?

[@EndocrinologyIndia]

Need to reduce the dose of SU. Stopping Pio is not necessary
