[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 1423982, member: 30007"] It definitely seems to work more quickly. Breakfast with a healthy portion of beans this morning and a five minute pre-bolus? Glucose went up from 4.7 to 7.2 and is on the way back down again now. To be clear on Novo Nordisk's strategy, NovoRapid comes to end of patent very soon (later this year I believe), so will be liable for BioSimilars and I believe that Fiasp is part of the evergreening process. It's damned annoying though, because it shows that the medical patent process doesn't speed up the need for rapid improvement in treatments. Humalog is also nearing the end of its patent, which is one of the reasons why Lilly has been looking at Biochaperoning and now the Diasome HDV product. Just to be clear. If you are on Novorapid already, you are probably getting a prescription for Insulin Aspart, rather than Novorapid, so technically, if you can convince your pharmacist to change what they order for Insulin Aspart to Fiasp, then there is no need for a prescription change.
