Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
Insulin dose decided on the basis of blood glucose level both fasting and after food. Plus there are different types of insulins, it is not which one you are using. There are rapid acting and long acting insulins plus combination of both.
It is given in units per dose, not as ml. Taking excess insulin is not advised. It causes hypoglycemia. Thanks.

is it cartridges that you mean.

The insulin used in cartridges which are used in pen devices are more stable and once it is open has good functionality till a month.

If buying in bulk can be stored in the door of refrigerator.

My son, 5 years completes by dec 16, vegetarian, no egg also. He was given VIDANGASAV in high doses (20 ml each time) several times to cure intestinal worms. This medicine caused intestinal ulcers to him and started vigorous coughing with intestinal pain and asthma. Doctor prescribed 1) cyclopam 3 days 2) zanocin 5 days 3) lanzol junior 15 on empty stomach for 10 days. As my son was complaining of anal itching, doctor also advised us to give single dose Albendazole 10 mg syrup 2 times in a span of one week. We completed all these above medicines, BUT, his 1) severe anal itching continues during daytimes and afternoons and nights also (especially just after completing his latrine/ stool excretion), 2) he is still complaining about stomach ache now and then, 3) he is complaining about head ache rarely 4) coughs often (no phlem in the lungs), phlem do not come into his mouth. OUR QUESTION IS 1) what is this anal itching he is suffering from. He says some kind of thing walking and pinching and pinning from inside rectum. May be piles? 2) do you advise us to continue lanzol junior 15 for few more weeks until his intestinal ulcer and associated cough and stomach ache gets cured? ->We use RO water (acid water) at home for the past 2 years, without Alkaline/ minerals cartridge. This also might have helped develop intestinal ulcer in his stomach. Now we changed this water and giving water mixed with minerals and high PH and TDS of around 300 ppm. -> He regularly goes to latrine 2 or 3 times. Please advise. Thank you very much.

To know whether it is worms or not take stool routine and microscopic test.
My advise is to take homoeopathic treatment.
Reasons (1) No Side effects
(2) Gives permanent solution.
(3) It cost a lot less than allopathic treatment.

Hi you r a diabetic. Your injection site is not healthy. You need to follow a proper rotation technique for injection. Not at the same site always. The area you are referring need to be left for few days without injection. It will improve on its own. Take care.

Lybrate-userji, it appears you have t1 diabetes, (if the age is 14 years), in that case only drug that can be used to control blood glucose is insulin injection. No other drugs are given for t1 diabetes patients. You need to increase the dose of insulin injections both in the morning and night.

Ayurveda very good medicines for diabetes and weakness.
वात पित्त कफ दोष आयुर्वेद चिकित्सा के आधार हैं अतः रोगी की प्रकृति और दोष के आधार पर हम भोजन, परहेज, दिनचर्या ,योग और प्राणायाम के साथ कुछ आयुर्वेदिक दवाइयां लेने का परामर्श देते हैं और परिणाम बहुत अच्छे मिलते हैं परंतु उसके लिए व्यक्तिगत रूप से फोन अथवा वीडियो कॉल द्वारा बात करना आवश्यक है।
