I recently started to use Fiasp insulin but have had stomach upsets, and I was so concerned that I decided to go back onto Novo Rapid as from today. Has anyone else had this trouble with Fiasp insulin? Thanks.

I have not experienced stomach issues with Fiasp.
Have you read the leaflet which comes with your insulin and lists all possible side effects?

I've never had any side effects for Fiasp, apart from hypos. I believe NovoRapid and Fiasp are very similar. But it might be worth switching back to see if your side effects disappear. And / or getting checked out to see if it's something else entirely.

I checked the Fiasp leaflet as suggested and it does state that 5% of users get stomach upsets and back aches, which stopped when I went back to Novorapid. It seems that I am one of the 5% unlucky ones. Thanks for the suggestion to check the leaflet. Much appreciated.
