I have been on insulin since Aug 2009 and ithas bee sloly increased ever 4to5 weeks and finally we have it down to in the 200'sI take 28 units of novolin three times a day and 150 units of Lantus at bed time. The insulin is so expensive even with pres.plan i payabout 500 per month for my insulin I would like to find a cheaper insulin any body have any ideas ?Would love to hear your comments.

This medication is really made for Type 1 diabetics. I'm a type 2.

Pros

It works for type 1's better than type 2's/

Cons

Works for shorttime then blood sugars go back up not log after the body uses it.

I use a walmart brand of 70/30 which doesn't cost much and I don't need a Prescription ,plus I use a R brand of theirs as well

Pros

the R works real fast don't have to use a large unit just one unit if its over 200 it brings it down very fast.

Cons

Still working with it and what I eat it will take time.

I use to have to use it to regualate my sugar and it worked great until suddenly my sugars dropped and I was taken off ALL Diabetic meds. Very strange time in my life. Of course did not last but at least not on regular insilin at this time, just sliding scale now and oral medication.

Pros

Would keep me regulated with my sugars.

Cons

Just that I had to take it regular.

This is the insulin I take by self loaded syringes.

Pros

It controls my diabetes well and I haven't noticed any side effects that bother me.

I've only been using this a short time as my back-up to Lantus, but for me it seems to work well in bringing my numbers down.

Pros

It works.

Cons

It hurts to inject.

I am so insulin resistant that I have to have this product along with Byetta . I have tried different insulins and this works better than most on me.
