now injecting Humalog AFTER meals

October 1997

Some patients are now injecting Humalog AFTER meals.

Humalog (insulin lispro) is the new rapid-acting insulin. Most patients inject it IMMEDIATELY before meals.

Now some are injecting Humalog right AFTER eating...so they can adjust their dose depending on how much they've eaten.
