DIABETES - JUVENILE TYPE I COMMUNITY
Lente/UL

Lente/UL

Double Questions here:

Does anyone know if Lente and Ultralente are still available in Canada or Europe? And, can they be imported safely?

And, I recently read a professional article on the Ph of Lantus and injection site tumors. A bit later, I came across a note from a patient that had two tumors removed from hip injection sites - one cancer, one benign.  Was wondering if anyone that has been on Lantus since it first was approved has noted any such problems developing.

Dear Imediject,
    i am not a doctor  or mmember of the medical profession, just a diabetic sharing my experiences. i've read that in Europe they use different concentrations of insulin than the U-100 in the US. So it may not be wise to think of importing it.
    i'm on an insulin pump and have never used some of the newer insulins on the market nor have i read of any problems with them. i've read extensively on diabetes and receive two diabetes magazines to keep up on facts.
Hope  this helps, bret
