• Sense of personal failure
• Low self-confidence
• Low confidence in therapy
• Injection phobia

Benefits of Early Initiation of Insulin
• Intensive insulin therapy significantly improves β cell function in patients who have
failed maximal doses of OADs

Benefits of Early Initiation of Insulin:
Mechanisms of β-cell dysfunction
• Glucotoxicity#
• Lipotoxicity#
• β-cell exhaustion*#
• Amyloid deposition*
• Oxidative stress#
* worsened by sulfonylurea administration
#improved by insulin

Benefits of Early Initiation of Insulin:

• Short-term insulin treatment may have long-lasting effects when introduced in the
early stages of T2DM

Overcoming barriers to insulin initiation
• Enhance self-efficacy
– Demonstrate insulin use
– Encourage practice before returning home
Stigma: “If people see me taking an insulin shot, they’ll think New injection devices like insulin pens are not very
I’m a sick person.” noticeable, and the needles are smaller and thinner than
they used to be.
Weight gain: “Insulin will make me fat.” I’ll help you find a nutritionist who can teach you how to eat
healthier foods and develop an active lifestyle that helps
keep you trim. And insulin is no more likely to make you fat
than some of the oral agents you’ve been using.
Hypoglycemia: “I’ve heard that diabetics who use insulin can pass That’s less likely to happen with the newer forms of insulin we use
out suddenly, or even go into a coma. I think it’s called now. And if you do have a hypoglycemic episode, it will probably be
hypoglycemia, and it scares me.” something mild you can treat yourself. I can teach you how to
recognize what’s happening and what to do about it.
Complexity: “It all sounds too difficult for me to manage on my We have new, step-by-step instructions you can follow when you
own.” start insulin therapy and when you need to make changes.
Complications: “I know people on insulin who have serious Diabetes-related complications are the result of inadequate control

complications you’re concerned about. That’s why I recommend you
start using insulin.

Initiation and Titration of Premixed Insulin
• Start with 10 U either in the morning (if night-time glucose is high) or at night (if
morning glucose is high)
• If the total insulin dose exceeds 20 U or pre-dinner blood glucose persists >150
mg/dL, then premix insulin can be given twice daily
