Probably you are taking 80 units of insulin/day. Yes I can start you on cheaper insulin and it may control your sugars better with proper diet and excersize. However I may need your past history and treatment records.

Hello, thanks for the query.
The newer insulins (analogues) are expensive. The advantage with those is better glucose control and less chances of hypoglycemia episodes. However, if cost is the consideration, then one can still manage with older inulins only thing is more number of injections and more meticulous dosage adjustment is required.

Hello, thanks for the query.
I have gone through the details given. In fact you are too many drugs to treat diabetes. Since you are on 30/70 insulin (any one is similar) you can actually achieve better control by monitoring the insulin dosage and fasting and pp glucose levels. Taking so many oral anti-diabetes drugs may not be needed.

The data extrapolated from this trial is revealing promising and positive results. The oral formulation of this insulin, currently named ormd-0801, is in capsule form. Oramed pharmaceuticals is the first pharmaceutical company to attempt oral insulin that has progressed this far in the trial.
But you should not take anything without doctor's advise as it may be harmful.
