Summary

A previous study showed that absorption and glucose-lowering action of rapid-acting insulin analogues occurred twice as fast when these analogues were administered by jet injection technology rather than by conventional insulin pen in healthy non-diabetic subjects. This study investigates if the rapid-acting insulin analogue aspart (Novorapid®) injected with jet-injection or a conventional insulin pen prior to a standardised meal in patients with diabetes shows the same difference in the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

jet injection device

Rapid-acting insulin analogue aspart (Novorapid®) administration by means of a jet injector or a conventional insulin pen in the subcutaneous tissue. Dosage of insulin will be determined by the normal dosage of insulin used by the patient before breakfast.
