I would recommend you to consult an endocrinologist and change your insulin from a premixed one to an analog mix like ryzodeg. However given the long-standing diabetes you are having I would suggest you to be on a basal bolus regimen which involves using two different insulins, in short two pens which will provide you finer control and better flexibility.
Don?t increase dose on your own. You see your attending physician for this. He/she will adjust your dose or will prescribe you different medicines. As high sugar levels during pregnancy is not good.
They are slightly different in composition. So there will be difference in onset and peak action. However, you can try it and see whether the blood sugar control is acceptable. Your fasting and pp levels are high it should be below 130 and 180 respectively. Also get an hba1c done to have a better understanding of your blood sugar control.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Yes she can use that Insulin, only ensure that it is also 40 iu per ml, so that dosage becomes same. Plus the syringe used should also should be 40u/ml one. Thanks.
There was no difference in incidence of hypoglycaemia. Conclusions: switching from human insulin mix 30: 70 to analog insulin mix 50: 50 results in better post main meal control.
