[QUOTE="janabelle, post: 117997, member: 7788"] Hi, I've asked this question before, and had no reply, but surely 'insulin resistance' can only apply to 'insulin' not synthetic insulin; if someone is having a prob on a synthetic insulin, is it insulin resistance or a drug reaction? If a patient had a prob on any other medication; eg inadequate response, or side effects, in most cases doctors would suggest an alternative treatment. Unfortunately many doctors are denying patients the option of changing insulin, or only offering long-acting analogues. Of course many people get on fine on long-acting analogues. Unfortunately for the many who can't achieve stable control on them or suffer side-effects, they can end up on more prescribed medication to deal with the problems that are directly caused by the synthetic insulin. Not just metformin, but painkillers and anti-depressants. Jus [/QUOTE]
