"I have been using Humalog and now insulin lispro for 15 years. I have no issue with the insulin, but the pens leave much to be desired. They skip, jam, and don't work well with BD pen tips. The quality of these pens is nothing like the pen I use for Levemir. I have never had a problem with a Levemir pen. Lilly should be ashamed of this product. If I could change, I would."

Insulin lispro "The pen doesn't work right. The injection goes 10 units before insulin comes out. Not a good thing, it's like full of air without the bubbles."

Insulin lispro "Significant weight gain (10%) very soon after starting Humalog. Not a powerful reducer of sugar like I would have expected for the frequency and cost."

"I have used the cheapest insulin in the world, but this is not insulin, this is 100 percent rubbish, and someone is making a lot of money off a product that doesn't work."
