Exubera (insulin inhalation, rapid acting) for Diabetes, Type 2 "My husband and I both love Exubera. It gave him more control and gave him back his dignity. He is needle phobic and I had to give him his insulin shots. This also limited my freedom as I had to be there twice a day to administer the shot. So no overnight visits to my Mom unless he went too. With Exubera, diet and exercise, he was able to completely eliminate insulin shots. He also said that the shots were very painful for him and his skin became very sensitive and bruised."

Afrezza (insulin inhalation, rapid acting) for Diabetes, Type 1 "Well, I have been using this with Levemir, and before a week ago, with Humulin R. This week, I completely cut the regular insulin injections and have used only Afrezza. For the very first time, my sugars are mostly within the normal range. This is truly amazing, as now, because they are discontinuing Levemir, I'm going on the pump as I cannot use any other basal insulin. I almost don't want the pump, but I remember the severe cold-like symptoms Tresiba and Lantus gave me. I am astounded at how flat my sugars are now. Afrezza caused me no breathing problems. I don't want to give up Afrezza now that I see how truly wonderful it is. I used to use it maybe once every couple of days and was not impressed. Even when I had my sugars as high as 500, I'd inject regular insulin because I'm so used to it. No more. I've only been taking 2 shots a day now, amazing what happens when you completely get rid of Humalog and regular insulin. Waking up at normal levels, not 530 or so, and staying normal. Amazing."

Afrezza (insulin inhalation, rapid acting) for Diabetes, Type 1 "This is a terrible drug and I caution everyone who is thinking of using it to do research on the FDA Website for adverse reactions because I will soon be submitting multiple ones to them. My son is T1 for 24 yrs now & in the hospital now for brain surgery as a result of his most recent low blood sugar because of using Afrezza that resulted in severe hypoglycemia, seizures and brain bleeds as a result of the seizures. This drug is difficult to dose & MOST IMPORTANTLY leaves very little room to catch a declining blood sugar & subsequent severe hypoglycemic reaction. It acts so quickly that by the time you realize you need juice or glucose you are already seizing. The claim that the body’s natural glycogen will kick in to save you is totally FALSE. I’m not sure how the FDA approved the drug. This is not the first time he is in the hospital for Afrezza hypoglycemia issues either, just the most serIous. Please please save yourself from this drug and DO NOT USE IT."

Afrezza (insulin inhalation, rapid acting) for Diabetes, Type 2 "Expensive treatment that doesn't even replace all injections. Just replaces mealtime insulin. Not basal insulin. Not worth it"
