If your sugar level getting under control of getting normal anti diabetic than you don't need insulin. Infact, diabetics type 2 essentially is a case of insulin resistance than actual insulin deficiency.

lybrate-user, Insulin is essential in T1 diabetes as there is no other drug that works in that condition. If you have T2 diabetes then unless diabetes is very severe with blood glucose levels over 300 to 400 mg/100 ml, there may be no need to start with Insulin. There are enough good drugs available which give excellent glucose control. Thanks.
