    Afrezza inhaled fast acting insulin

    Tresiba yes, but I don't know anyone taking it. I had read that the very long acting insulins can stress the pancreas in Type II where they still are producing some insulin and that it can push the pancreas to work very hard, burning it out so to speak, then they end up Type I. Maybe you can...

    No, anything at all. And your question is rather odd. These are the most recent for new products and both happen to be Sanofi. Always looking to learn and find the best for BG control. The human body is so very complicated and how one person reacts to a drug is never the same as another...

    I did find this about Toujeo " In a trial called Edition 4 among 549 patients with type 1 diabetes, Toujeo and Lantus achieved similar blood sugar control over six months, while those taking Toujeo had 31 percent fewer night-time low blood sugar events during the first eight weeks of...

    Can you please tell me how others can get it now to try since many want to ?? On the site I look at, it hadn't signed off and doesn't say "launched " yet, and the pharmacy says they don't have it. This would be great news to have on how to get it now if you could tell us.

    Yes, Toujeo is recommended by Sanofi as the latest basal injectable. Toujeo is to be released only next week, so there are no comments to follow yet on how people actually feel about it. Toujeo is going to replace Lantus , as Lantus is losing its patent soon, meaning the generics are going...

    I see the paranoia , as you stated. The negativism on this board is enough to make anyone run for the hills. Back in the real world though, progress is really being made . I look forward to continuing to follow NICE and their findings. I look at their site every couple weeks to see the...

    Unless you have compromised lungs, it is stated that Afrezza can be used by anyone, You don't have to hope, this is the real deal. It is reality, the reality that diabetes will no longer be the main thing in life, that tight control of BG is obtainable WITHOUT THE HIGHS AND LOWS, and life...

    YES, Maybe now more people will believe when I say you don't have to count carbs as carefully. I know, unheard of in the history of diabetes. People are only moderately careful and Afrezza adjusts somehow to that. AMAZING isn't it ! Now you see my interest in this and why. It is time in...

    I wish I could put up sites for you but they will only be deleted on this forum I take it. I know, I didn't believe it two years ago either. Here is the main concept - all injectable insulins are hexamers, that is insulin molecules attached to a zinc molecule. That is the reason it takes so...

    Correct, but your comments were directed to me for that. This is a public forum and that is my hope that others will see that there is hope for a better way with diabetes. It is coming in time when we won't have so much of our day directed towards diabetes and will have more time to think of...

    It is inappropriate for anyone to use my excitement about this and accuse me of such things. I know nothing about advertising. No education in that at all. I am excited and maybe you need to be also.
