Type 2 diabetes is caused because your insulin does not achieve that glucose enters into the tissues or because you do not have enough insulin. There are medications used for trying to solve both cases.
I think that there is something wrong with this part : Type 2 diabetes is caused because your insulin does not achieve that glucose enters into the tissues
Any suggestions?

does not promote sufficient glucose absorbtion into the tissues from the blood
This is what I would suggest as an improvement.
As a now insulin-dependant type II diabetic, the problem is that your body does not produce enough insulin for a balanced blood glucose level. Initial treatment is diet and exercise, possibly supplemented with tablets to stimulate insulin production. Two of the inter-related factors are body weight and regular exercise.

See explanation below.
Yes, there is. "achieve that it enters" does not sound right. Should be something like "insulin does not cause glucose to enter the tissues" or "does not release glucose into the tissues".

Type II diabetes results from tissue insensitivity to the insulin (produced by the pancreas)
The issue in DM Type II is insulin resistance. The receptors on the fat cells that are supposed to recognize insulin are not functioning.
