Hi doctor, my mom is a diabetic patient and her previous doctor had prescribed recoculin 30/70 40iu to her. But, unfortunately that insulin is not available in any of the drug store near me. Can she use lupisulin 30/70 40iu instead of recusulin. Please advice.

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.
