Insulin Tresiba (swallow)

The new ultralarga tresiba insulin is already available in Spain ... finally !!!

Insulin Degludec (Tresiba) has meant a milestone in the treatment of diabetes: it has more than guaranteed the duration of 24 hours, its profile is really flat and its variability is 4 times less than that of glargine.

Past 3 or 4 days, which takes to achieve a stable situation, also allows great flexibility in its administration.The patient can choose the most comfortable time to prick.

Although it should not encourage the patient to be injected anarchically, there are studies that support that separating up to 40 hours two punctures from threeiba the control is not deteriorated (during the study period, they administered three as follows: 40 hours after the dosePrevious, the next 8 hours later, the next 40, then at 8 am, ..).

This flexibility can be very important in many people with irregular lifestyles.

Thanks @camalom.
Do you know if the Endocrine of the SS already recipes it?

Yes, it is already funded by the SS

Good news :)

Well, I have an endrocrino in two weeks, but I am afraid to ask for to change, because how much does it have been marketed in other countries?At least to know if there were side effects.

@Davidt1, talk to your endocrine and tell us. He explains to you, but has been using in Europe and the US for a few years.
Search for information

Take this week I go and I will tell my educator to see.

From the official news to reality I do not know how long it would take, I was last week with the endocrine and at the moment nothing in the hospital.I do not know the procedures, just over the morning they begin to prescribe but I would be surprised ..

If when I go to the endo in March I can give me swallow of course I am, if I don't take toujeo.

I have already told you to try everything they want in me, as if they want to shoot me with laser rays.

:))

And what is it?I have read that it has a 42 -hour effect, but then in the application it must be click once a day ... it has not been very clear to me

Do you have official information about this?

Yes, my brother has started with threeiba at the end of last week, prescribed by his endocrine due to repeated hypoglycemia ...

They are already recipeing those who have nightlife or need two doses of Lantus.You need a special permit because it is more expensive. I suggest that we will all have it soon.

I neither have nocturnal hypos nor have two doses of the Lantus and today the endocrine has been prescribed the insulin Tresiba.It has already sealed inspection I only have to buy it and try it.The doctor has told me that it takes two days to adjust so I don't scare me if I got the glucose between meals.

@Anaisabel What community are you ...?More than anything to know if it comes to mine.What I do not know is if although they prescribe it in the pharmacy ..........

@sigsauer, from Aragon.I have not yet bought it, but for a comment that has sealed the recipe I think there will be no problem.In some pharmacy there must be a problem if the Recipe puts swallow since in inspection is called Tresiba (commercial name).The endocrine has put me swallow I will tell you if they give it to me or not.

In the Valencian Community they are also prescribing it.

I upload it to comment how it is going.
Is the dose similar to that of Lantus?
Can you put at any time?
Does it combine with any fast?

@Regina, he told me to put the same dose.
That I put it at the same time, but that if one day I put it before or later nothing happens (this comes to me very well at work schedules)
And of course, continue with fast insulin.
Ah and that takes a few days to take effect.

I can say little more, let's see if someone has already started using it and comments something.
