Well lets see, say 1u/30g (which I'd consider fairly insulin sensitive) that would mean eating 450g at once. Just thinking of that much that makes me feel sick. I doubt anyone who really would need this small increment would need a 10u dose, let alone a 15u dose. I think a 0.25 pen could easily be marketed for children and prescribed for adults as well. Which is what I believe happened with the Novolog Junior pen.
