Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Insulin can be taken with the tablets that you have mentioned. As for the need for the insulin, I would add that if these sugars (190/290) are on tablets, there is definitely scope for better control of sugars. So yes, insulin can be added.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
