Welcome and thank you for asking!
If proteinuria is caused by the chronic complication of Diabetes, than you should have in your therapy a medication to protect further dameges of the kidneys (ACE inhibitors or ARB).
Your doctor would have prescribed you if the renal parameters are appropriate.
It is very important to maintain normal glucose values to prevent further damages.
If proteinuria is due to other causes, than the cause should be treated.
