Too little insulin can cause symptoms of high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) which include confusion, drowsiness, rapid breathing, fruity breath odor, increased urination or unusual thirst. (patientassistance.com)

Insulin resistance occurs when muscle, fat, and liver cells do not properly use insulin, the hormone produced by the pancreas that helps cells absorb glucose and provides a source of energy to the body. (sciencedaily.com)
The substance also helped reduce the mice's obesity and made them more sensitive to insulin, a hormone that helps control blood sugar levels. (medicalnewstoday.com)

Researchers from the Johns Hopkins Children's Center say a group of drugs known as "atypical antipsychotics" that are commonly used to treat children with aggression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia may trigger insulin resistance, a condition that increases the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes and heart disease later in life. (sciencedaily.com)
But diabetes and heart disease are serious health issues, so it's important to further investigate this apparent relationship between atypical antipsychotics and insulin production and consumption," he adds. (sciencedaily.com)

If you are starting a patient on inhaled insulin who is not on prandial insulin, you are going to start with 4 units, in most cases. (medscape.com)

The use of Semglee for this indication is based upon an adequate and well-controlled trial of another insulin glargine product in pediatric patients age 6 to 15 years with type 1 diabetes and additional data in adults with type 1 diabetes. (rxlist.com)

Insulin inhalation is a short-acting, man-made version of human insulin. (medlineplus.gov)
Insulin glargine is a long-acting, synthetic version of human insulin. (medlineplus.gov)

Chemically, insulin glargine is 21 A -Gly-30 B a-L-Arg-30 B b-L-Arg-human insulin and has the empirical formula C 267 H 404 N 72 O 78 S 6 and a molecular weight of 6063. (rxlist.com)

Over time, he said, broader use of Wegovy could lead to fewer people with type 2 diabetes needing to take insulin, which he said would be a "very positive outcome" for society. (indiatimes.com)

In the unlikely event you have an allergic reaction to this drug, seek medical attention immediately. (patientassistance.com)
Tell your doctor if you have had allergic reactions, especially to beef, pork or human insulin and of your medical history especially of: thyroid problems, kidney or liver disease, any current infection. (patientassistance.com)

Tested in mice, the drug not only increased energy levels, but also reduced fat accumulation, and improved insulin sensitivity, which could pave the way for new treatment avenues in humans. (medicalnewstoday.com)

The insulin resistance seen in these children was greater than what would be expected from weight gain alone, suggesting there is a factor distinct from excess weight that directly induces insulin resistance," says the study's lead author, Mark A. Riddle, M.D., director of the division of child and adolescent psychiatry at the Children's Center. (sciencedaily.com)
Excess weight, lack of exercise, and a family history of diabetes all contribute to insulin resistance. (sciencedaily.com)
This review focuses on the effects of APDs on weight gain, appetite, insulin resistance, and glucose dysregulation, and the relevant underlying mechanisms that may be help to prevent and treat metabolic side effects caused by APD therapy. (nih.gov)
