I am type 2 diabetic patient since 28 years with high bp and coronary heart disease (standing in 2008 and 2014). For dm taking novomix penfill 30/70 insulin three times and tablets (glister 4, morning and evening, tenpla in afternoon and ramo-100 morning and evening). Cost of novomix penfill is very high and increasing every 6 months. My family physician advised alternate insulin i.e. Wosulin 30/70 manufactured by wockhardt locally. The content of both is same except novomix is synthetic and wosulin is human. With novomix penfill and tablets my sugar levels are average 130 fasting and post lunch 175. By switching over to wosulin (cost benefit which is one third of novomix) is there any side effect? Will my sugar level will controlled? Will there weight gain. Attaching medical history. Taking novomix since last six years.
