Yes it is possible if you achive hba1c 6 or 6.2 by human insulin after that you can change human insulin to oral tablets. You can use oral tablets with strict following diabetes diet with 3 km walk or any exercise.

Mr. lybrate-user kumar, thanks for the query.
The mentioned medicines (both) can be taken at the same time. However, since nothing is mentioned about fasting, pp, hba1c%, weight, height, dietary pattern, extent of daily exercise, lipid profile and bp readings. There no other comment that can be made. Usually insulin should be taken separately and oha should be taken separately. Thanks.

Hello,

You can always manage it and lead a happy and active life.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Both Insulins mentioned are same. Only difference is one has 40 units per ml in the vial. The other has 100 units per ml in the pen. So if you are taking 6 units with 40 u/ml one, then 6 units need to be taken with the pen. You will have to fix the dosage on the pen, it will deliver that quantity only. Thanks.
