insulin aspart novorapid

There is no change in my diet,exercise or my daily routine pattern. Even I take short acting insulin(novorapid) when my sugar level goes beyond 300 but it doesn't make much difference. I m really worried.as I know in long run high sugar can affect d working of other body parts &I m clueless that y my sugar level is so high even aftr maintaining strong diet control.

As I currently live in London and will be continuing my healthcare here whilst I am away (12-18 months = 1 annual review meeting with my healthcare team), I am reviewing my options for getting my insulin. I am currently on Levimir and NovoRapid (Insulin aspart). What I am interested in is if anyone has any insight into the options that I have available.

He knows his correction dose of novorapid is, for example, 1 unit of insulin will drop his blood sugar by 35 points. Thus, he will use 2 units of novorapid for correction. He is also planning to eat breakfast shortly and will eat 30 g of carbs. He knows that he needs, for example, 1 unit of insulin to cover 10g of carbs. Thus, he will add 3 units of novorapid for his breakfast, giving him a total dose of 5 units of novorapid.

per carbs, per starches, per snack, etc Most endocrinologists will put a diabetic patient who uses insulin on a sliding scale of insulin, depending on what the blood glucose is when you test before a meal. What did your doctor tell you?

older insulin Humalin-N has an onset of 15 - 30 minutes compared to the modern insulins such as Aspart (novorapid for me) and Humalog, which have an onset of about 10 - 15 minutes. Moderate acting insulins are the ones we use for basal (background) insulin. Examples are Humalin-R (older insulin), levemir, lantus etc. Then we have the action profile: whether there is a peak or not. The older insulins, particularly humalin-R do not have a flat action profile.

I've recently started taking Novorapid Insulin three times daily, trulicity once a week and Lantus once a night before bed.

She is on 4 shots a day, 2 with breakfast which is Insulatard ( 9 units ) and 3 and half units of Novorapid. She gets 2 units of Novorapid with evening meal and 2 units of Insulatard with bedtime snack. We are finding it very difficult to bring her sugars down within her target range.

injury etc Her insulin brand was changed from Novomix (mix of 30% insulin aspart and 70% protamine crystallised insulin aspart) to Biocon brand (30% as soluble insulin injection and 70% as Isophane insulin injection) recently.

I am type 2 now on insulin since May 09 and have put on 30 pounds, but sugar is well controlled unless I do somethign stupid like stop taking my insulin in order to not gain weight. ok, well, i'll never do that again...so then, since i hae gained 30 pouns since last may form the insulin (possibly also becaue i stoppe smoking) but how can i control my wieght? the 30 piound weight gain is not good!!!! any help pelase?

Hello, My 3-1/2 yr old son was recently hospitalized because of vomiting due to a gastrointestinal virus of some kind. He's ok now and at home and past all the virus symptoms. We've been slowly increasing his insulin dosages while his body gets used to properly digesting food, but, now that we're back to normal insulin dosages, he's still exhibiting very high levels after breakfast and into lunch (approx 24-27 mmol/L or 430-480 mg/dL).

Doses of NovoRapid will vary from person to person definitely. It depends how much you weigh, and whether your T1/T2. I'm a type one and 4 units of fast acting insulin wouldn't be enough to keep 60g of carbs at bay in my blood glucose. The best thing is to do trail and error for while, and eventually you'll be able to estimate precisely. The only way is to find out yourself. Every recommendation of doses from doctors i've had to adjust and find out what is best for myself.

Another question from me:P, i have been reading around latley, and have found many differnt types of insulin,and insulin pumpsm etc. all with there pro's,and cons. If possible, could someone please explain to me the differnt types of insulin, and ways of managing diabeties, and the pros and cons of them.

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/uspdi/500253.html and did find some info on skin changes .. "Less common or rare Depression of the skin at place of injection; thickening of the skin at place of injection; ..." This doesn't mention cellulite directly, but it sounds similar. The site also has a clear caution to discuss these or any other changes with your doc.

Examples are insulin zinc suspension, protamine zinc insulin, and the insulin analogues insulin glargine and insulin detemir. The latter two insulins are now the most widely used long-acting insulins. * Biphasic insulins: mixtures of short-acting and intermediate-acting insulins in different proportions, such as 30/70, 50/50. Examples are NovoMix 30, Humulin M3, Insuman comb and Humalog Mix25.

I eat very sensibly and very rarely do I have carbs (mostly salads). I use Novorapid as my quick acting and have low doses of that (10, 6, 8) and 16 Lantus. I have been type 1 diabteic for 26 years (since I was 5) and have not had problems with my weight but in the last 6 weeks have gained 5.1kg I am very active and am finding this hard to deal with. Can anyone shed any light on to what I can do to loose weight as i have tried everything ! I am considering going onto an Insulin pump.

Insulinotherapy was initiated with glargine, ten units at bedtime (glycemic value before aministration was 169) after reiceiving 6 units of aspart imediately (7 pm). Next day a fasting value of 140 mg/dl. Bedtime value (2 hours postprandial ) 269. After 10 U glargine, fasting value 120 mg/dl. Glycemic variation are very important and depend on the thyroid status. What is your opnion? Is this a temporary glycemic instability, type 2 or type 1 diabetes?

Im type 1 and on novorapid and levimere.Im new to the carb counting.Over the last few months ive lost weight although ive never being big.My doctor recently said i need to get my head around the carb counting a little better as the hba1c is high.Can anybody tell me the best way of putting back on weight??

s and was theerfore recently put on to Lantis (1 dose in the am) with Novorapid (meals), but it does not seem to be working for me. I was not getting into single figures on the dose pescribed and upping it (now by 2 units) has not helped. Novorapid sort of keeps it under control at meals but my base rate is simply not adequate.

the amount of Levemir taken has nothing to do with the amount of carbohydrates (carbs) you eat. That type of insulin is called a bolis insulin, like Apedra, Novalog... that insulin is taken according to how many carbs are eating and YOUR particular carb to insulin ratio.

He has 5 insulin injections a day...Four of them are NovoRapid (after each meal and after his last snack) and the fifth one is Novolin ge NPH which I give him at 11:00 at night...His readings are a bit higher than recommended in the morning...I don't know...we've been working on this for a while now...we havent seen much improvement...is it the Novolin that's the problem? The time we give the insulin maybee? We're all very new to this and I learn everyday...

10 units (1/30cc=1 unit) of Novolin ge NPH (isophane insulin) mixed with 1.5 units of Novorapid (aspart insulin; Novolog in the US), abbreviated as N10 & RP1.5 respectively (2) dinner: RP2 (3) evening snack: N3.5) Even now, we're still just adjusting to the eating and injection schedule, and you will too. It takes time, and we'll never really "get used to it", but it's all we can do for our kids. Our son's last HbA1c check was 7.

I have been a Type 1 diabetic for 38 years now. I inject insulin three times a day. I have become more and more aggravated with the fact that syringes are available by prescription only! Does anyone out there really believe that such a vital, simplistic medical device should not be available "over-the-counter"? What is the reason we are being told that it must be this way?

It's been really hard for me to reach out like this after so long of hiding my little problem and taking advice from people who have no idea what complications type 1 diabetes (insulin dependent) has with weight loss. I've been through the fads, even tried the shakes which was the worst idea and didn't last long. Worked out religiously and condemned any 'junk' food to hell, well i still do.

i'm glad you're feeling better off your long acting insulin, but i hope the NovoRapid, Novolin NPH are keeping your blood sugar down. If it's not, you really need to see your doctor. I'm concerned you haven't seen your doctor since changing it. At least you could leave a message? thinkthink, i haven't heard mold is used in the manufacturing process.
