Measure
Pramlintide + Insulin Group
These kids will get Pramlintide (Symlin) along with insulin before breakfast and supper. Pramlintide: Start at 15 mcg capped at 60 mcg before breakfast and supper subcutaneously for 4 months
Exenatide + Insulin Group
This group will get Exenatide(Byetta) along with insulin before breakfast and supper. Exenatide: Start at 1.25 mcg, capped at 5 mcg, subcutaneously, before breakfast and supper for 4 months
Insulin Monotherapy
This group will be on their regular insulin therapy. Insulin: Rapid acting and long acting, subcutaneously, according to their regimen for the entire duration of the study.
