CONTROL OF BLOOD GLUCOSE IN DIABETES TREATMENT USING PULMONARILY ADMINISTERED INSULIN IN COMBINATION WITH BASAL INSULIN

摘要

Methods related to the treatment of diabetes and improving the control ofblood glucose levels are provided. In particular, methods are provided foreffectively reducing postprandial glucose excursions while reducing theincidence of clinically significant late postprandial hypoglycemia byadministered an insulin composition in a form suitable for pulmonaryadministration. Additionally, methods for effectively reducing post-prandialglucose excursions while reducing the incidence of clinically significant latepostprandial hypoglycemia by administered an insulin composition in a formsuitable for pulmonary administration along with a long-acting basal insulin.
