Insulin

[saraelbanaxx]

Hi there,
I'm a type 1 diabetic, and I was diagnosed in 2011 at the age of 12 and I have gone through many different types of insulin. My issue is that the clinic think that I am having reactions with the preservatives in the insulin.
Is there anyone who has gone through this and what insulin do you take now?
I currently take apidra and lantus solostar.
Thanks

There is one insulin that doesn't use metacresol - Insuman Infusat - that may be worth asking your team for. It has to be used in a pump, but that may make the difference for you. Worth a try.
