The best sites for insulin injection are in the subcutaneous tissue of the abdomen (avoid the area close to bellybutton) .Usually, you should not inject within 1 inch of the same site within 1 month. The arms and legs can also be used, but insulin uptake from these sites is less uniform. Insulin should be injected subcutaneously only with a U-100 insulin syringe. "B-D ultra-fine" insulin syringes are good. Insulin syringes are available without a prescription in many states.

Insulin lispro is injected just under the skin. Your doctor will show you how and where to give an insulin injection. First, clean your skin with cotton dipped in alcohol. Most people are able to grab a fold of skin and inject insulin at a 90-degree angle. If you're thin, you may need to pinch the skin and inject the insulin at a 45-degree angle. When the needle is in your skin, you don't need to draw back the syringe plunger to check for blood. See similar questions...

No. Definitely not. AIDA is purely an educational tool - intended for self-learning, teaching and / or demonstration purposes. It is not meant for individual patient blood glucose prediction or therapy planning. Basically, if you have diabetes, the simulator is not sufficiently accurate to predict your own personal blood glucose profile. This is because everyone is different, and each person's diabetes is different. See similar questions...

Sure you can, make sure you shoot into an area of low body fat. IE bis, tris and for some delts and quads. Can I use this to cut? Yes you can, but this is for an advanced user. Chances of hypo increase whenever this is done. Can I bulk with it? You bet you can.... and its EASY. Just up your carb intake to 12g+ per IU and you will be gaining in NO time.

Probably not for many years, though you may benefit from some oral diabetic medications. Ironically, many people with type-2 diabetes actually have elevated insulin levels in the years prior to diagnosis. During this time the body is over-producing insulin in an effort to keep blood sugars under control (insulin has lost its effectiveness because of insulin resistance and a normal amount of insulin won’t get the job done).

You can inject it sub-cutaneously (just under the skin) in the stomach area or leg with an 29 - 30 gauge, 1/2 inch, 1cc insulin syringe, or alternatively you can inject it intramuscular, however the results from sub-cutaneous injections are more effective. See similar questions...

Some say that intramuscular is best, but it shouldn't really matter. You can inject it into the stomach fat (like insulin) or into the muscle. See similar questions...

If your insulin dose is less than 30 units a day, Medifast recommends you discontinue it entirely when you begin the plan. Monitor blood sugar readings twice a day during the early weeks, then decrease monitoring to two to three times a week. If you are on more than 30 units a day, you can usually decrease your dose by half, then reduce it further as your blood-sugar level drops. Monitor blood sugars as above. See similar questions...

Prepare the back-up dose immediately and call 911 or contact a medical facility. Inject the back-up dose if the symptoms have not subsided within 10 minutes of the first dose or have recurred. See similar questions...

The new generation of recombinant gonadotropins, including Gonal-F, Follistim, and Ovidrel, may be given subcutaneously as the preferred route of administration. The older generation of gonadotropin preparations, such as Pergonal, was approved for intramuscular administration. Repronex has been approved for both intramuscular and subcutaneous injection. hCG has been approved for intramuscular injection in the past. See similar questions...

Insulin is a hormone needed to sustain life since it is necessary for converting blood glucose into energy and for the cellular metabolism of many other nutrients. Insulin is a hormone produced by the beta cells in the pancreas that allows glucose from the food we eat to get into our cells for energy. Insulin is necessary for life. Without insulin action, glucose and other nutrients from food cannot be used properly and glucose levels rise in the blood. See similar questions...

We prefer to inject 30-40 embryos per clone. If we inject more than one clone a day we average around 60-70 embryos a day. See similar questions...

We are planning to use both a current and more advanced proprietary fuel injector, invented by Raphial. We believe the advanced injector is a cost effective design and that this new fuel injector will eliminate pre-ignition, detonation and knock events, responsible for the annoying marble sound inherent to Diesel Engines.
