What can I say...I'm bored and it's slow here. So answer the poll. :nurse: Sorry there's no room for an "other" choice, but I think I got them all in there.

Novolog and Novorapid are the same thing, simply known by different names in different countries, hence them being placed together.

OK, based on the results so far, remember to sell stock in Eli Lilly and Company and buy more stock in Novo Nordisk Inc.

I didn't add it, but I voted Novolog, as that's what I'm now on.....and to think, had I waited just one more year (with bad bgs :eek: lol), I would have gotten a 25 year award (for being on Lilly's insulins only)....:rolleyes:

I thought you just had to be on insulin for those, not just lilly insulins. Lol.

My bad, I was thinking you placed them together for people using both, which left me puzzled.

Ok, I'm currently using Novolog in my pump. Prior to that, it was Humalog.... can't say I notice any significant difference :dontknow:

I am the same way. The only significant difference to me is I get Novolog for a $5 co pay, and Humalog for a $10 co pay.
Prior to that I was on that great 70/30 **** from Humalog. I also use to use Lantus/Humalog prior to pumping

I use Humalog in my pump. Before that I used Humalog pens and Lilly's Humulin NPH. Before that it was Humulin NPH + Regular. When I was on N+R with no insurance I would sometimes buy the Novo N+R because it was cheaper, but I found it to be somewhat stronger than the Lilly insulins and didn't always remember to cut back my dose. Of course, being on NPH + Regular was awful anyway so switching insulins back & forth probably wasn't a good idea. When I got insurance I stuck with Lilly since that was what I used most often.

See sig for insulins used.
FYI: Novolin/Humulin U(UltraLente) and Novolin/Humlin L(Lente) are no longer manufactured or sold anywhere in the world.
