Treatment that’s no longer effective
Your typical blood sugar levels may change if you recently made changes to your life choices or type 2 diabetes treatment regimen. It's also likely that your treatment strategy will lose some of its effectiveness over time. Your A1C test results could be impacted by this.
So it's a good time to use a new strategic plan to control your A1C level. Talk to your doctor about changing your treatment if it is no longer working and has an influence on your blood sugar levels. Perhaps you should:
- Start taking medication if you’re currently managing with diet and exercise
- Change the dosage of your current medication
- Switch to a new medication
- Switch from oral diabetes medications to insulin
