Consider NPH and Regular Insulin INSTEAD of Insulin Analogs
November 2015
We're getting questions about how regular or NPH insulin compares to insulin analogs in type 2 diabetes...especially when cost is a concern.
Most analogs (Humalog, Lantus, etc) cost about $250/vial...compared to as little as $25/vial for regular or NPH.
Insulin analogs are often perceived as being "better" than regular or NPH because they more closely mimic physiologic insulin secretion.
