Discussions tagged “Humalog Mix 75/25”

I've been on Novolin for years, but my doctor recently switched me to Humalog Mix 75/25 Vial 10ml. I was told it's a mix of two types of insulin: one that works quickly (lispro) to cover meals, and one that works longer (lispro protamine) to provide background insulin. I inject it under my skin, usually before breakfast and dinner. Has anyone else made this switch? What has your experience been? Has anyone noticed any side effects, or any major changes in blood sugar management? I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences!
