[QUOTE="LucySW, post: 637152, member: 113749"] No, it's because it contains protamine. Which a) is the thing that makes the timing of NPH a bit unpredictable ( wh he doesn't like), and b) can cause problems if people have a coronary angiography. Protamine is injected for that, and if you've used NPH you may have antibodies to it and hence a bad allergic reaction. But apart from that and in small doses, I don't see the problem. Dr B's favourite insulin was a really old-fashioned one called ultralente. It was very very gradual and gentle. But the money now is with super-fast. [/QUOTE]
