Hi Everyone,
I contacted Merck this morning and opened a case # because Yukon seems to be getting higher Blood Glucose #'s 3/4 through a bottle of Vetsulin. Once I open the new bottle the numbers go back down.
I am a little concerned because the person that answered the phone and took my information and gave me a case # advised to me that the insulin initially needed to be shaken vigorously and once the bubbles subside I am supposed to use it. All other injections after that the bottle should always be shaken, not rolled.
I specifically asked her several times if that was right and I told her that Yukon has been to two ER Vets and two other Vets and they all told me to roll the insulin, not shake.
She said shaking is correct - has anyone heard of this?
