CANAGLIFLOZIN vs INSULIN LISPRO

I’m just so happy i had to share somewhere. I had my test a couple days ago and got the results, been dreading but it turned out great! The medication (canagliflozin), brown rice and food control has been working the past 2 years. I know i’ll have to continue these for the rest of my life, but know

We went out to the ADA Expo in LA a couple weeks ago and wanted to share some interesting stuff we learned from a seminar on Current and Future Treatments on Diabetes [A few photos] (http://imgur.com/a/pMkDl) [SGLT-2] (http://www.forbes.com/sites/larryhusten/2013/03/29/fda-approves-first-sglt2-inh

So I am a type 2 diabetic taking Invokamet (Metformin+Canagliflozin). I like to have a drink or two with dinner here and there. ive notied though, that if I am drinking beer I get nauseous 2-3 hours after, but not after wine or liquor. Has anyone else seen side effects such as this?

I'm male, age 47, 5 foot 8, weigh about 250 pounds. Ever since going on insulin two years ago I've had a hell of a time losing weight. I also have degenerative disc disease and osteoarthritis of the spine which makes exercising difficult, but I am walking for 15 minutes every day after work, and wor

I'm wondering if anyone has started this med and could tell me how they feel about it. I'm a type 1 and it was offered to me to help lose weight. I'm just unsure of how it will change my BG, if I'll be having lots of hypos and if it really will help me lose weight. Any input would be great to hear.

I see articles recently shared talking about people not taking their insulin or reducing it due to costs. There is help, here are the programs I use the most, please share with your patients.

Basically title. I’m a clinical pharmacist at a hospital. We are trying to start a patient on standard sliding scale insulin lispro, but one of their allergies is listed as cat dander and the lispro is flagging as allergy cross reactivity. I cannot find ANYTHING online to support this. Does anyone

Know little to nothing about it, but one MD says he’s done it before. What exactly is the point? Package insert for lispro says when given intravenously, the clearance rate is similar to insulin regular.

Curious how other institutions handle insulin on the floor. Currently we let RN’s draw up regular and lispro using pt specific 3mL vials pulled from Omni cell, we draw up glargine in our IV room, and all the other flavors we dispense a pt specific vial from central and RN draws up on the floor. Wel

I've heard from multiple patients who switched from Humalog to Admelog that now their sugars are all over the place. people who have been on the therapy long term and have well controlled numbers that report once they switched to admelog they had to increase their dose. 2 of these patients switched
