Key takeaways

Type 1 diabetes medications help manage blood glucose (sugar) levels, prevent diabetic ketoacidosis, and reduce the risk of long-term complications from the condition. Different types of insulin are typically used to treat Type 1 diabetes. These include long-acting insulins, such as insulin glargine (Lantus, Semglee, Basaglar, Toujeo), and rapid-acting insulins, such as insulin aspart (NovoLog, Fiasp). Continuous glucose monitors, such as FreeStyle Libre 3 and Dexcom G7, can help you track your blood glucose levels in real-time. These options provide different ways to help manage your diabetes effectively.
