Oralin?

[Rigel]

Is this mouth spray insulin for real? I've read they're doing clinical trials. What about inhalable insulin? Is that viable as well?

[Jon]

I had not heard about Oralin, so I looked it up. (http://www.docguide.com/news/content.nsf/news/8525697700573E1885256AED004794C1?Open&id=48DDE4A73E09A969852568880078C249&count=10) It sounds promising, but it sounds like it is still a long way off for those of us in the US. It takes years before the FDA approves anything here.

i dont know...i just think inhalable insulin would just cause other problems of the body like the lungs or something ...i would rather take a shot

[Jada Mae]

I am with you on that too. To think of inhaling something into my lungs that could cause other problems such as the lungs being irritated, does not sound all that appealing to me. I will gladly take a shot any day, besides, the needles they make today are so very fine you really don't feel them going in. I am a type 1.5 so really didn't know where to post this either the type 2 place or type 1? Is either one permissable?:confused:

Welcome Jada Mae,

You can post anywhere you want. You may come back and find it elsewhere you never know. I'm a type 2 but care fore a type 1 spo I post whereever I feel like. Heck we are just happy if you post!

[Jon]

I post everywhere too. If Travis doesn't like where it is, he will move it for me.

Jada mae ...

if you have type 2 questions you can post in the type 2 section if you want but if its a general question about diabetes your not limited to any of the threads you can post anywhere you want too

[Jon]

What if its a general question about diabetes and she posts in chit chat?
