Children with diabetes use no more than how many units of insulin?

Patient's question:

During the physical examination, it was found that my son's fasting blood glucose level was as high as 19.8 mmol/L.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, considering type 1 diabetic patients, especially children and adolescents, some may experience a clinical remission period in the early stages of the disease and within weeks or months of receiving adequate insulin treatment. During this period, patients may require only a small amount of insulin to maintain their blood sugar levels close to normal or within the normal range. Regular follow-up is recommended.
There are multiple causes of childhood diabetes. If a child is diagnosed with childhood diabetes, parents need to cooperate with the doctor in active treatment, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child needs a balanced diet and should avoid stimulating and cold foods.
