Good night
In fact I am just a diabetic but there are puzzling questions
Many diabetics type || here in my country use insulin but without interest
My question is really insulin solution suitable for this type ?
As I often know these types of patients have a lot of insulin
 
Hi @HICHAM_T2 ,

Hope you are well my friend?

To my knowledge, there are 3 different strength of insulin. Most common is u100. Normaly ascociated with T1 (but not strictly so.)
However, where there is levels of insulin resistance? (T2.) A more concentrated/stronger u300 or u500 insulin can be used to keep the overal dosage volume to a minimum for the patient?

Actually! I lied a little?
There is a 4th insulin... "Vetsulin" which romps in as a u40 for diabetic animals such as dogs or cats.

Hope this helps?
 
Hello my dear friend @Jaylee I am fine and I hope you are also like that
This is really valuable information the first time I hear it

I just knew there were short, long and medium types of insulin
Thank you

Hi, yes I am all good thank you for asking ..

Lol, I dare say someone else may come along & correct me with a possible 5th strength at some point. But that's the nature of a forum.
There are different working profiles with long acting insulins (let alone the strength.) & also now 2 with short acting action like Novorapid & the recently developed Fiasp..

I also find myself enlightened by the knowledge of others.. We know what we know, discuss &'expand...
