Both of them seem exaclty the same to me. Oddly enough, both seem to take quite a bit of time to take effect in me. I don't know if that is normal or not...
Hi And Welcome Bobby. Glad that you found us. I hope you enjoy
it here.
Some people on here have commented that Novolog is better and
works faster. I've never been on it. I'm on Humalog, it starts working
in 10 minutes and brings my sugars down quite quickly. If Novolog works
faster, I don't think I'd want to try it. Although, I would probably get used to
that one also in time.
That's odd that those Insulins wouldn't work quick enough on you also.
How long does it take to bring your sugars down usually?
