Diabetes Mellitus type 2

2019-09-04 12:50:13
He is on diabetic medications for type 2 since 2-3 years. Earlier he was taking glimepiride 1 and Metformin 500 mg twice a day. He was having hypoglycemia and thus is taking once a day since many months. He is also taking rosuvastatin 20 mg since a year. Now he has lost around 15 kgs of weight and is controlling his diet. Is it possible to stop these medcations in near future. Is DM type 2 reversible??
