Change of Actrapid to Novorapid, units to use

Hello.A relative changed the fast insulin for when they were given cases of upload innole's rise to novorapid flexpen, the thing is that we have no idea what dose should use with the new one (novorapid flexpen).Does anyone know where could you look at this information reliably?It has type 2 diabetes.

I had innolet with the following way.
150-200 = 2ui.
200-250 = 4UI.
250-300 = 6ui.

He says to remember that with Novorapid Flexpen they put half of the units for the same values, but the paper does not appear therefore ...

If you could take a hand we would be grateful, since it seems that he resists wanting to go to the doctor for this information and I think it is better to know it in advance than not later in a climb everything quickly and running.

Thank you.

@AC9: The main difference is that Novorapid is faster than Actrapid.I would try the same units.
In the following link you have more information:
Link insulina- we have

@AC9 I think it would be best to call your endocrine and ask you to tell her again the units ... Insulin is not turkey mucus to play with her happily, you can take more than one scare.

@AC9, if you can't communicate with the endo, to start with half the dose as you think, and if you stay high you can go up

@AC9, you will also have to keep in mind that the duration of the novorapid is less than that of Actrapid.And it may be that with Novorapid the snack does not cover. All that will have to consult it, because they are not equivalent insulins.

@Regina fortunately so far only for unexpected climbs (it is of type 2), until now we touch wood, it happens very uncommon.Thanks again!
