  • Title: Intensifying insulin therapy with insulin analog premixes: transitioning from basal insulin in type 2 diabetes.
    Author: Shanik MH.
    Journal: Diabetes Technol Ther; 2012 Jun; 14(6):533-9. PubMed ID: 22364142.
    Abstract:
    Because of the progressive nature of type 2 diabetes, basal insulin alone may not be able to provide sufficient glycemic control over the long term, and thus insulin regimens will typically need to be intensified--especially for controlling postprandial glucose excursions. In patients with type 2 diabetes requiring more intensive intervention, insulin analog premix formulations can offer a simple, effective, and convenient option for tighter management of hyperglycemia in lieu of a traditional basal-bolus regimen.
