Type 1 diabetes
Alternate Names : Insulin-dependent diabetes, Juvenile onset diabetes, Diabetes - type 1
Prevention
Currently, there is no way to prevent type 1 diabetes. There is no effective screening test for type 1 diabetes in people with no symptoms. To prevent complications of diabetes, visit your health care provider or diabetes educator at least four times a year. Talk about any problems you are having.
Stay up-to-date with all of your vaccinations and get a flu shot every year in the fall.
