Insulin Inhalers

The new insulin that is inhaled has proven to be a success. That is good news for people who cannot or will not use needles. However the needle therapy still is about 7% more effective than the inhalers. Also doctors are a little concerned about long term use and lung function, since the longest user in the study was only up to two years. Much more needs to be known about long term before I think doctors will really push this new drug.
