yes you can get rid of medicine .........the first line treatment for controlling of blood sugar levels is through diet and exercise.....then after the anti diabetic drugs are prescribed to control blood sugar level.........
1) diet should not contain much carbohydrates and starches(avoid sweet foods)......
2) exercise may be in the form of running or fast walking for at least 40 min daily.....
