Insulin Analogs

1. My daughter's blood sugar goes up in the early evening, drops at 3 a.m. She has been taking Lantus at bedtime. The doctor has suggested twice daily Lantus. What do you suggest? (15 Jul 2008)
2. Are there any problems using Apidra in a pump? My child's doctor has suggested this to us. (14 Jul 2008)
3. Recently, my son has had increased emotional outbreaks and headaches. His blood sugar has been elevated at these times. Is this related to the change from Humalog to NovoLog? (12 Jul 2008)
4. Sometimes after dinner, my blood sugar is very high. Is it safe to take an extra dose of Humalog to bring it down? (30 Apr 2008)
5. My daughter spaces her NovoLog injections at a minimum of three hours apart. I've heard some people do overlaps. Is there a formula to use for overlapping doses? (22 Apr 2008)
6. What can you tell me about the carcinogenicity of Lantus? Is Levemir safer? (13 Apr 2008)
7. Will showering after a Lantus injection affect its absorption? How would exercising before the shot affect its absorption? (23 Mar 2008)
8. I take Starlix for postprandial highs and have an A1c of 6.4. My doctor wants me to take Lantus to bring down my fasting blood sugars. Do you think this is necessary? (18 Feb 2008)
9. My toddler's doctor has suggested we switch to Lantus and NovoRapid to prevent lows. Is this safe for a two-year-old? What time of day should we give the Lantus? (24 Jan 2008)

14. My son is not gaining much weight, two years after his diagnosis. Should I give him more carbohydrates/more insulin? Why does his Humalog take so long to work? (22 Oct 2007)
15. At age 16, I am only 5 feet, 5 inches tall, partly due to high A1cs, but I now have better control of my blood sugars. If I switch to Lantus, will it help me grow? (9 Aug 2007)
