[QUOTE="Seacrow, post: 2355546, member: 420515"] That sounds right. The pens are calibrated to give the dose they read - the dose you dial up is the dose you get.. So the u200 pen will provide the same number of units of insulin (same dose) in half the volume of liquid. The confusion comes when you try to use a u100 calibrated syringe on a vial that is u200 strength, but the pens work around that. I hope this is clear enough. I was put on novomix 30 after I was diagnosed. It took a whole ten days before I was desperate to try something, anything else. 20 years on and I still haven't met anyone novomix works for. [/QUOTE]
