Anyone know where i can get charts on the different insulins, ie graphs that show how they act ? As i want to change of lantus.

many thanks

The only thing that I have links to is charts such as these showing Insulin Types and actions.

I do not have any in graph form. There is one member here who can usually be relied on to come up with the goods but she is not around at the moment........

Long Acting Insulins.

Bit more information from our own Community pages. There are links down the side as well. No charts/graphs just types to look into perhaps......

Humalin I (letter I, not figure 1, but difficul to show in this font) is not mentioned in any of the links already given. It is intermediate to long acting, administered once or twice a day, and much cheaper than Levemir or Lantus. I've been using it for over 14 years.

Humalin IS mentioned in the links down the left hand side of our Community page link........

Hope that helps.
