How to know if insulin has spoiled

Good morning.Lantus use.I wanted to know if there is any way to know if insulin has become bad.I have little left to finish the ball, this weekend I finish it because I am on a trip and I have brought it to me.The issue is that I am uploading the number of units because I am noticing that on an empty stomach what we wanted to control because I was getting higher.One day I had a forgetfulness and I thought it could be for that but days later I am getting higher than previous weeks although I am raising the amount.I do not see her murky or notice anything weird, if perhaps a bubble that moves her quickly, as if she were more liquid, but I don't know

It has not happened to me but I imagine that if it expired or it was wrong, it would have values ​​of 600 or more, as if I had not put it.

If, as the prospect says, it is not murky, it is supposed to be fine, if it were bad as @ruthbia notaries the basal, the best if you have doubts and the pen is in the last use a newof the ball, keep us using it until it ends

It happened to me with Toujeo. As I apply little, I exhaust the time of use of the ball that, in theory, is six weeks.I raised the dose believing that I was finishing my honeymoon and when it touched the pen change I entered hypoglycemia.The change of pen with which I left a few days was out and then I did not relate it, I thought it was because I had more physical activity.It was exhausting, I was by Andalusia, it was December and I had bought mantecados for the family and I spent two days zampando mantecados like a rioter, because it is what I had at hand.
Since then I dispose of the pen at 5 weeks, I do not exhaust the 6.
If the glycemia climb does not seem normal, replace the ball.It may have been at more temperature than adequate or spoiled without more.If with the new ball you are still the same is that your needs are changing.
In my case, the inulin was transparent, apparently perfect and I was very novice, it happened to me in December and I had debuted in September.

It seems that the effect of insulin is not the same when you start the pen q when you have been a while.I have proven it.
At 4 weeks it begins to make less effect.Therefore, I at four or five weeks, waste the ball, even if I stay.

Thank you so much.I just finished it today by putting me 18, tomorrow I will put myself with the new 18 just in case I need for what is more (I am also eating more and I have passed a shine regulate) and if I see that I get a lot of fasting I will go down again.

I had a forgetfulness of the bag in the car that was sunbathing and when I realized I was hot, I suppose it will have been spoiled or less effective

Mine has nothing to do with insulin, but I put an injectable hormone that had been expired in its ampoule and the endocrine and tell me that this is impossible for it to work when it was expired, but when I did the analyzesthan closing the mouth, the hormone levels had them high !!

They usually make less effect, either they stop working.But it is that the insulin in particular was out of fridge and stayed in the car in the sun for a while.Today I have risen on an empty stomach below 80, which just yesterday started the new one.Until today I was getting up in more than 100 and with much more quantity.

Thank you all, I think that if I get very low tomorrow I will lower the amount again, I think that in this case it was clear that the insulin was bad but at first glance I did not notice.

To kill me that
It has happened again with the new one.Not in the car but in the bag and the sun has entered through the window and has given it.Clumsy me ????Noooo

@Nila I carry it in a cold portfolio

I have bought it but I had not used.Now I will put it with cold water (it serves the tap or does it have to be in the frigo before?)

Only water.The refrigerator breaks its technology, that is, that silicone spoils.The manual puts it

Thank you so much

The bubble is normal, which you have to verify that whenever you wear it, it is totally transparent, like water.

Thank you so much!!Then I am calmer
