I am a user of Porcine Hypurin Neutral and Porcine Hypurin Isophane. I am 72 and have had diabetes since 12 years old. I have hypos nearly every night on my isophane nsulin.My consultant wants me to change to Levemir instead of Porcine Isophane to prevent these hypos during the night.
I'm not sure if you can take two different types of insulin,one porcine and the other synthetic. Has anyone else tried this? My consultant says Levemir has a flatter profile and doesn't peak the way my Porcine Isophane insulin does.
This is a very rare combination I believe.
