Humulin n for cats
Common Questions and Answers about Humulin n for cats
humulin
I am taking Humulin-N but my sugar level every morning is around 225.
You're a good friend to be concerned about your friends well being. If "N" is Humulin N, there is no "standard" Humulin N dose that will work for all people or even for the same person in all situations. This applies to other insulin types too. If your friends at home test results show low glucose levels "several times per week" it is time to have his/her insulin dosages re-evaluated by their physician.
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.
Zoe - I think Windchimes meant humulin insulin not huminsulin. Humulin is considered an intermediate acting insulin as its duration is 24 hours, but this can vary per individual. LANTUS, on the other hand, is considered long lasting as its duration is up to 36 hours.
Windchimes - You kept your Humulin dose a secret so one can only assume you're at max and why your doctor is considering moving to the pump. This link will give an inside on pumps http://tinyurl.com/lvs7o6 .
If you are in US I understand you can buy the old insulins (Humulin N and R over the counter in wallmart quite cheaply). This will be better than none. You can also get cheaper meter and strips the same way. I assume you do know how to use insulin properly.
You need to check how you can get assistance. Do you have a Dr? Can you get access to any assistance. Sounds like you might be in trouble with really high blood sugars. Juice can make your sugars very high.
I have had diabetes for 30 years.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?
s it and I know that my dog is not getting enough nutrients from this diet. She was diagnosed in May of 2006 at the age of 5. She gets 3 units of HUMULIN N twice a day. Her last Frutosomine test was on the high side, "490" but her vet said that there is no need for concern.
Please help me with some diet ideas.
I want to be able to put a pack n play or niether a bouncer to put it the living room but i dont want my two cats to destroy the baby things or have fur in/or in the playpin..wat do u all do about ur animals?
Most dogs do well on either Novolin N or Humulin N. Personally, I found Humulin N to work better for my dog. The cost of a bottle of insulin at WalMart is about $25 compared to $50 for the same thing at a regular retail pharmacy.
7. There are many diets you can use. You are not limited to w/d, which the vets seem to push! I don't know if your dog vomited because he didn't like the w/d, but maybe you have an idea about why that happened. It may have been because his sugar was high.
I've been a type 1 diabetic for 12 1/2 years. My doctor took me of Humulin N because A1c was 5.5 and I would experience lows through out the day. With diet and exercise, my blood sugars were pretty good. When my gynecologist put me on Birth Control Pills, seems as if my blood sugars got worse. The next prescriptions would be Glucophage twice daily. Things didn't get better. This medication was discontinued and I was prescribed Glucovance. Oh my God.
I took kitty to the vet this morning and it wasn't good news. She tested positive for Feline Leukemia :( I hope her brother doesn't have it too.
The vaginal bleeding, he thinks was her having a miscarriage. Which I guess is a blessing in disguise, since they are brother and sister. Eeewwww! I guess cats don't care though.
I hope somene will still adopt them, they are so cute.
I am worried about my cats though.

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. It is absorbed more slowly, and it's effects last longer, about 12 hours. Usually NPH is used in combination with one of the fast acting insulins. An alternative long acting insulin would be Lantus.
Hello I am new to novolin My Dr has me on 15 units twice a day after being on lantus for 1 year and it just did not work at all for me under 29 units was not enough and over 20 units bottomed my sugar out
My question is and this also did this when i was on lantus is it normal after injecting yourself with insulin that my blood sugar spikes up I am talking it can be 150 and after the injection it will jump up to 300 with in 3 hours is this normal or is it just me I know I am not making sense
I am a member of a support forum that is full of very active members that are truly helpful in both understanding N and in living with it. ************* dot org. If you are truly suspicious of having N, for me, the first step would be find out. That would require a sleep study.
mm27 the passing out you are referring to is most likely Cats. Cats is a very dangerous thing and I would suggest you get with your sleep doctor and discuss treatment options.
We have 3 cats, 2 guinea pigs, a one year old and a baby on the way. When I was pregnant with my first all I was getting was either. "That's far to many animals you'll have to give them up!" Or "So I take it you're getting rid of the cats?" We trained the cats not to go in the babies things before she came using a spray bottle of water and we've never had a problem. In fact she's particularly friendly with one guinea pig and our younger cat.
t want her near me at all. Try to get her some help n check up on ur cats n grandparents.
You can buy cat repellant from pet shops. A spray that isn't harmful but for some reason cats hate the smell...
