Novalin N Issues?
Are any of you having NEW issues with your Novalin. I am wondering if my walmart got a bad batch or maybe they have changed formulations? I don't trust the pharmaceutical companies to let us know if there is problem. My vet has also heard of Novalin not working as well for some clients. The last 3 bottles I have gotten have all been the same lot number - FZF0314 exp 10/28

Re: Novalin N Issues?
what i have found with my jesse she is not real consitent . i use to blame on the insulin . get a new bottle and the numbers would be about the same
the only time i might see a change with aging insulin at about 2 months
so many factors with the biology of our pets even a change in weather appears to affect some
it is possible there could be a problem but i think they have been making novolin the same way for a very long time
I am one to believe its just the ups and downs managing this diseaseLast edited by jesse girl; 12-20-2016, 01:53 PM.Jesse-26 lbs - 16.5 years old ,11 years diabetic, one meal a day homemade and a vitabone snack . 3 shots of Novolin( under the Relion name ) a day .

Re: Novalin N Issues?
I have to concur with Jesse Girl, more likely issues with either a particular individual insulin vial or just those normal bumps in the road that come with treating canine diabetes.

Re: Novalin N Issues?
Hi, I had been having slow downward spiral with Maggie and then all of a sudden we are back up over 325 and the numbers don't seem to really come down from morning test to night time test. It is a new bottle and I just checked the alpha trak control and it is within range. Are you having similar problems?Comment
