Glycaemic outcomes in hospital with IDegAsp versus BIAsp30 premixed insulins. (PubMed, Intern Med J) - "Inpatients treated with IDegAsp compared to BIAsp30 had similar hypoglycaemia incidence, but higher hyperglycaemia incidence, potentially related to less frequent twice-daily dosing. With the increasing use of IDegAsp in the community, development of hospital management guidelines for this insulin formulation is needed."

Glycaemia in low-premixed insulin analogue type 2 diabetes patients in a real-world setting: are the CGM targets met? (PubMed, Eur J Med Res) - "Most of our type 2 diabetes patients, treated with low-premixed insulin, did not meet the recommended TBR target for older/high-risk patients while meeting the TIR and TAR targets. Nevertheless, the time spent in (total and nocturnal) hypoglycemia was short. The study indicates that the general type 2 diabetes population targets would mostly be met for TBR and %CV in our patients but not the TIR and TAR targets. CGM appears to be a useful clinical tool in these patients."

Mixed insulin can improve control of prednisolone-induced hyperglycaemia. (PubMed, Intern Med J) - "Mixed insulin as a pre-breakfast or pre-breakfast and pre-lunch regimen can target the hyperglycaemic pattern induced by prednisolone and minimise overnight hypoglycaemia. However, higher doses of insulin than used in our study are likely required for optimal BGL control."

"@novonordisk Can you recycle your Novomix 30 insulin pens? If so, how & where?" (@STEVEFI14205588)

Pharmacokinetic Similarity between Biosimilar Insulin Aspart Premix SAR341402 Mix 70/30 and Originator Insulin Aspart Mix 70/30 (NovoMix 30) in Indian Adults with Type 2 Diabetes: GEMELLI M Substudy. (PubMed, Indian J Endocrinol Metab) - "Other efficacy endpoints, insulin dosages, anti-insulin aspart antibody response, hypoglycemia and adverse events were similar between groups. Our results support the findings from previous studies, that SAR-Mix has a similar pharmacokinetic profile to NN-Mix and provides effective glycemic control with similar safety and immunogenicity profile in Indian adults with type 2 diabetes."

Extreme insulin resistance during pregnancy: a therapeutic challenge. (PubMed, Endocrinol Diabetes Metab Case Rep) - "Insulin treatment was initiated immediately using Novomix 30, and the doses were progressively increased, peaking at 1420 units/day at week 34 + 4. Obesity, PCOS, T2D and high levels of leptin and IGF-1 are predictors of severe insulin resistance in pregnancy. A close collaboration between patient, obstetricians and endocrinologists is crucial for tailoring the best possible treatment for pregnant women with diabetes, beneficial for both the mother and her child."

Rare case of diabetic neuropathic cachexia along with diabetic amyotrophy. (PubMed, BMJ Case Rep) - "He was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus in July 2020 and was started on Metformin and Gliclazide by his in July; he was later commenced on alogliptin and empaglaflozin by diabetes specialist nurse in early August. Patient was diagnosed with diabetic neuropathic cachexia secondary to poorly controlled diabetes and was commenced on 30 units two times per day of NovoMix 30 insulin; this was adjusted to 24 units two times per day in endocrine clinic 3 months later, after gaining 10 kg in weight. Good glycaemic control is key to the management of such cases and, therefore, we recommend early referral to diabetes specialist input for consideration of insulin therapy."
