humulin

Avatar m tn I am taking Humulin-N but my sugar level every morning is around 225.
Avatar n tn My whole body starts swelling up after weeks of Humulin N shots starting from the feet and legs. I am very sure this is the cause because the swelling subsides and my body will return to normal if I stop my injections. Please help.
Avatar n tn Insulins generally tend to have three general characterisitics -time of onset, duration of action, and peak of onset.
Avatar f tn Both my husband and myself have type 2 diabetes we have no health insurance so we have to buy otc insulin . I need to know how many units should be the initial starting dose of Humulin 70/30 until we can adjust according to daily bs readings.
Avatar f tn Why are you running out !?!??!?! If it is just running out refill the prescription early 2 days. If you have Humilin R on hand I question how old it is. If more than 30 days it is probably expired anyway. I also question having this Insulin as it has been largely discontinued for use as better insulins are now available. But the short answer is Novolog and Humlin R do not act in the same manner so substiuting can be very tricky and is probably not recommended.
Avatar f tn ve been injecting Byetta for nearly two years (twice a day). My husband saw that there is a class action suit against the manufacturer because of side effects, damage to the pancreas. I did some reserch on line and found there are all kinds of side effects, damage to the kidneys, liver and G.I. issues. For the last year I have had IBS and now my blood sugar is climbing, (only my fasting). Needless to say I have quit taking the injections because I'm afraid it has caused these changes.
Avatar n tn I VOICED MY CONCERNS TO MY DOCTOR AND HE HAD NO COMMENT. I AM ALSO TAKING SEVERAL DOSES OF HUMULIN R AND HAVE GAINED WEIGHT SINCE I STARTED TAKING THE LANTUS. PLEASE ADVISE. THANK YOU.
Avatar m tn I had much better control when I was using humuln n and humulin r . I am now taking lantus and novolog .I have had to increase my dosages and am still having a hard time getting control of my blood sugars. My aic is 7.8 this quarter vs 8. last quarter. should I go back to using the older drugs that gave me better control?
Avatar m tn The onset of action ranges from 45 minutes - 1 ½ hours, and the duration of action is six hours. Diazepam carries a bi-phasic half-life of 20-50 hours (for Diazepam), and 30-200 hours (for Desmethyldiazepam). Valium is indicated for the long-term management of generalized anxiety and tension-anxiety. Tolerance will not develop to the anxiolytic property of Diazepam, although tolerance will develop to the sedative/hypnotic property.
Avatar f tn a friend uses both regular and humilin n insulines and has low blood sugars a few times per week I think he is useing to much insuline at 18 units of N and 18 us of reg. twice per day ,am i crazy or is this far too much?
Avatar n tn m not a medical professional, just the parent of a kid with diabetes. Humalog and Novolog are different types of fast acting insulin, meaning that they are quickly absorbed into your system to immediately drop your blood sugar. Some people find that one works more effectively than the other, so which is used is really up to the patient. Humulin, more commonly called Humulin NPH, and even more commonly called just NPH, is a long acting insulin.
Avatar f tn I want to Thank You both fo your answers My dr took me off of novalin and put me on Humulin 15 units twice a day and it is working some what better I take the humulin like I did the Novalin 15 minutes before meals sugars are doing some better not running near as high as it was on the Lantus If I do not see any results in the next couple of weeks will ask to be referred to and endro again thank You both
2094297 tn?1345389093 3, my biggest problem is that I cannot take metformin as it causes acidosis and have tried twice with the same result (made me really sick) tried actos and did not help at all, I was born with a rare congenital problem of only the head of the pancreas, so I was doomed from the start and then the hep c tx did not help on diabetes side at all, although funny that while on tx blood sugar stayed good. go figure.
Avatar m tn A partial µ-opioid receptor agonist, its mixed agonist/antagonist activity affords it a lower risk of dependence and abuse than full µ agonists like morphine. Meptazinol exhibits not only a short onset of action, but also a shorter duration of action relative to other opioids such as morphine, pentazocine, or buprenorphine.
Avatar m tn about 2 weeks ago i had a sexual intercourse with a call girl.after 5 minutes of action,i decided to change style,when i wanted to start action again,just after i wanted to enter my penis in her vagina i heard the condom broke and i immediately extracted my penis and stopped the action.my penis was in her vagina for about 3 or 4 seconds after the condom broke and i stopped further contact immediately after that.
Avatar n tn a physician could give you a more detailed course of action depending on your situation as this varies by the individual. keeping yourself busy now and in the next several days may also be helpful.
Avatar m tn I live in Kenya and cannot find any supply of NovoLog there is only Humulin R. I need help to know if this is accceptable please!!!
Avatar n tn Thanks for the reply, But my concern is that duration of the actual play, that is intercourse. We do foreplay and cuddle and everything but when time comes to actuall intercourse, i am able to make 9 to 10 strokes and i am done. is it normal or it is very less. my wife conitnues with the motion and i just support her with my flacid pennis. is it normal, is it common in normal sexual experiace.
