Dosage Of Insulin To Diabetic Patients
This depends on the Insulin regimen your doctor advices; there are several regimens we use. The best regimen is to use three short acting insulin before main meals and a longer acting insulin at bedtime to take you through the night. The problem of this regimen is you need to take four injections a day. We have now insulin available in a mixed form which can be injected two times a day, before breakfast and dinner. If you are on a combination of Insulin and tablet, you can manage with one injection a day. In that case the best time to take Insulin is before dinner, not before breakfast. Recently, we have a longer acting insulin is available which works for 24 hours.
I
have
type
2
Diabetes;
do
I
need
to
take
Insulin
always
once
I
have
started?
There
is
absolutely
no
reason
to
think
like
this.
As
we
have
told
above,
Insulin
can
improve
pancreatic
function
and
if
the
control
is
very
good
with
a
relatively
small
dose
of
Insulin,
you
can
stop
and
start
tablets
to
see
the
effects.
If
not
successful,
we
can
always
restart
Insulin.
This,
at
least,
will
convince
you
that
your
body
needs
Insulin.
Can
I
take
tablets
along
with
Insulin?
Yes,
tablets
can
be
taken
with
Insulin.
With
combination
treatment
the
dose
of
Insulin
can
be
less
and
so
is
the
cost.
Also,
with
a
combination
the
number
of
Insulin
injection
may
be
less,
i.e.,
you
might
manage
with
one
injection
a
day
-
usually
a
basal
insulin.
This
combination
is
very
well
practiced
all
over
the
world.
This
is
called
the
BIDS
(Bedtime
Insulin
Daytime
Sulfonyluria)
regimen
What
should
be
the
correct
dose
Insulin?
There
is
no
correct
dose
of
Insulin;
the
dose
depends
on
what
your
body
needs.
We
should
aim
for
good
control,
whatever
the
dose
of
Insulin
you
require,
no
point
in
half-hearted
treatment.
Can
I
adjust
my
Insulin
dose?
Absolutely,
yes.
Our
idea
is
to
make
you
comfortable
with
the
adjustment.
You
know
your
body
best,
so
you
can
adjust.
It
is
advisable
to
go
slow,
say
by
2
to
3
units
at
a
time
rather
than
by
changing
the
dose
too
quickly.
