More and more of our patients are developing diabetes, many of them at a much earlier age, so treatment has to be more focused and intense: the sooner this starts the better. This Special Edition brings you the background and basis for starting insulin therapy earlier.
Two leading endocrinologists, Dr. Stanley Schwartz and Dr. Aaron I. Vinik, gave us their thoughts on early insulin use in exclusive interviews, and we've added in comments from clinicians like you who see patients in a variety of settings to help you make the correct decision for your case. We've also included a feature on the Early Use of Insulin to Improve Beta Cell Preservation, covering the science of how early use of insulin preserves beta cells.
And check out our new Tools for your Practice: the Insulin Stability Charts provide your patients with the facts on how long their insulin will last once they open it, and a chart that gives you the information on when and how to start your patients on insulin.
