When a person has NIDDM and they have to start using insulin are they still considered to have adult onset or does it change to IDDM?
IDDM is associated with Type 1 or "juvenile" diabetes. In Type 1 diabetes, your pancreas does not produce any insulin, therefore, someone w/ this will have to take insulin for the rest of there life. With NIDDM or Adult onset diabetes your body's pancreas is still making a small amount of insulin. Some people w/ NIDDM can get by with taking pills, and changing their diet and exercise. When those don't work , then one would have to take insulin injections to help control their glucose levels in their body. But it would never change to IDDM. I hope that answers the question for you.
