I am diabetic since 2009 and started insulin in 2014 along with tablets. I used novomix 30 penfill. This is very costly so I wish to use lupisulin 30/70. Will both are same. Can I take lupisulin 30/70 instead of novomix 30 penfill. My sugar levels with current dose of novomix are 175 fasting and 250 post meal. please guide.

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.
