Is there insulin pills are available?
If you are diabetic you should seek medical advice before taking tablets (pills) for your condition. There is a tablet form of insulin one called Metaformin.
Why Metaformin tablets as well as Insulin injections?
I am a future pharmacy student, so ATM my knowledge is quite limited. However, if i had to guess i would guess the reasoning behind taking metaformin WITH insulin is because the use of exogenous insulin causes your body's insulin receptors to downregulate. Metaformin, on the other hand, causes these same receptors to upregulate. Doing this will prevent you from becoming insulin resistance and possibly requiring more insulin eventually for the same effects. Also do not think metaformin is just an oral insulin, IT IS NOT!. They both lower blood sugar levels, but in different mays. Do not get them confused!!! I hope i helped :)
