[QUOTE="iHs, post: 801738, member: 8799"] Hi I appreciate that Afreeza will be absorbed through the back of the throat and then to the lungs as people inhale through their mouth but the mouth cavity is still used. Some time ago, I had the pleasure of being able to use Generex Oralyn as a friend got hold of it for me in India. Oralyn worked fairly well and was absorbed very quickly meaning less of it was needed. Its downside was that it didnt taste that good so a few sprays to eat food also meant swallowing a few mouthfulls of coffee or tea. In appearance, it looked just like a Becotide asthma inhaler so not at all big. It never got FDA approival or CE approval either but none the less, it did work, which for me, was amazing. Thankfully nowadays, I use a pump instead of bolus/basal multi jabs but there could well come a time when I wont be able to use infusion sets anymore because of absorption issues so not sure what insulin regime I will change to but before that happens, I hope that I will be able to use the artificial pancreas for a while [/QUOTE]
