Disposable Insulin Delivery Device (Uses vials of rapid- acting insulin; tested with Humalog and NovoLog; not tested with Apidra) Comes in different delivery options but patient must be able to tolerate minimum basal rate of 20 units/day since unable to adjust basal rate: Valeritas V- Go 20 (basal rate 20 units/day (0.83 U/hr) and bolus up to 36 units in 2- unit increments). V- Go 30 (basal rate 30 units/day (1.25 U/hr) and bolus up to 36 units in 2- unit increments).

Can be worn on abdomen or back side of the arm.
10 Afrezza 5-15 minutes hours 3-5 hours Inhaled insulin taken at the beginning of a meal. (insulin human) inhalation powder Dispensed in 4 unit (blue) and 8 unit (green) cartridges; able to take maximum 24 units per meal (3 cartridges per use). This is a rapid- acting insulin and needs to be paired with long- acting (basal) insulin. Inhaled insulin approved by FDA but not available to market yet. Lung function needs to be assessed before starting (spirometry, a physical and medical history); Not recommended for those who have chronic lung disease (asthma or COPD) or people who smoke or recently stopped smoking. MannKind looks to be partnering with Sanofi for marketing. Not studied with pregnancy (category C). Inhaler can be stored in refrigerator or at room temperature (30-77 F) but needs to be at room temperature before use. Inhaler must be replaced every 15 days. Cartridges are sold in foil package with 2 sealed blister cards that contain 5 strips of 3 cartridges (i.e. 30 cartridges per foil package). Unopened foil packages are good in refrigerator (36-46 F) until expiration date but cartridges being used need to sit at room temperature at least 10 minutes before use. Unopened blister card and strips good for 10 days at room temperature (<77 F). Opened strips good for 3 days at room temperature (<77 F).
11 Special Notes: Pen Needles: Syringes: Injection Tips: Insulin's mechanism of action: Most vials of insulin contain 1000 Units (10 ml). The higher the gauge for pen needle, the thinner the pen needle. 1/3 ml syringe = 30 units Always wash hands and injection site. The primary activity of insulin is the regulation of glucose metabolism. Insulin exert their specific action through binding to insulin receptors. This lowers blood glucose by facilitating cellular uptake of glucose into receptor- bound insulin skeletal muscle and adipose tissue and by inhibiting the output of glucose from the liver. Insulin inhibits lipolysis in the adipocyte, inhibits proteolysis, and enhances protein synthesis. Most pens contain 300 units (3 ml) and 5 pens come to a box (pharmacy cannot split boxes). Needle length: 31G and either 4 or 5 mm appropriate for most patients using insulin. 1/2 ml syringe = 50 units Rotate injection sites to prevent lipodystrophy, which may interfere with insulin absorption For safety, patients starting insulin should notify the department of motor vehicles about insulin use and should start carrying rapid- acting source of glucose and medical ID at all times incase of hypoglycemia. Pen needles and insulin syringes need to be ordered separately from prescription. Most people do not need to pinch skin unless 1 ml syringe = thin and worried about 100 units going into muscle. Can be injected in fatty tissue in abdomen, outer thighs, upper arm Discuss appropriate sharps disposal. and in buttock; may see better absorption in abdomen. Prime insulin pen before each use (2 unit air shot). New needle for each injection; do not store with needle. Last Revised: 10/2014

Insulin Action There are several types of insulin. They are classified by how long they act: very fast, fast, slow and very slow acting. Each type of insulin has a certain time period in which it works.
