Humulin N Reviews
For Diabetes, Type 1 "I have used Humulin NPH since I was a kid back in 1985. I have tried other medications, but none have worked for my body. Only Humulin NPH works. It works all day long and I only need to take one shot a day. I rate Humulin NPH a 10 out of 10."
For Diabetes, Type 2 "Type 2 for 20 years, Levemir used for 15 of the past years with increasing dosaging and could not get "even" spread with Levemir's 24hr protocol; Dr changed me to Humulin N, a 12 hr protocol with better effects throughout a 24hr period. Negative; caused me to gain 8 pounds within 2 weeks. I am very active and trim 64yr old and I don't like this effect."
For Diabetes, Type 1 "I have been using Lily NPH Insulin since 1984 and have found it very effective, with minor adjustments, over the years. When I was taking Novo Nordisk's version of NPH my units requirement nearly doubled and I never found it as effective as Eli Lily."
For Diabetes, Type 2 "I found that using Humulin N maintains my Hamaeglobin blood sugar (HBS) at about 8. When I shifted to Lantus my HBG increased to 12."
