Condition developing when the body can't produce insulin
May reduce blood glucose for 48 hours
Major nutrient that breaks down into glucose
Production of large amounts of urine

Dysfunction of the peripheral nerves, causes numbness/weakness
Vascular complication of diabetes
Body attacks own tissues
Given once daily for hyperglycemia
Primary treatment of Type 2 diabetes
Condition where the pancreas makes little/no insulin
