Wheather chewing tobaco is responsible for less insulin secration and insulin once started could be stopped after a certain period?
Brief Answer:
chewing tobacco doesn't cause decreased insulin.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir, welcome back.
No Sir, chewing tobacco doesn't cause decreased insulin secretion.
Insulin once started can be stopped and see whether the sugar levels are under control under drugs. If they are under control, then we can continue with drugs, But if sugar levels bounce back, that is implied that you need insulin regularly there after.
Hope this guides you
