If left for a long time, there may be more serious complications such as coronary heart disease, kidney disease, including vision problems. Due to diabetes in the eyes, therefore, when abnormal symptoms occur, it should not remain calm. Should see a doctor for further treatment correctly.
When to use insulin
• Diabetic patients whose pancreas produces insufficient insulin to meet the needs of the body.
• Diabetic patients with complications in the liver, kidneys and ineffective medication
Type of insulin
There are 2 sources of insulin, which are obtained from the extracts from the pancreas of pigs and cows. The other source is derived from the synthesis by genetic engineering. Resulting in insulin that is the same as human insulin Which is less likely to cause allergies than the first And is currently used.
Insulin is divided into many types. According to the duration of action
- 1. The action type is very fast, clear and colorless. The action lasts for 10-15 minutes, the maximum effect is 1-3 hours and has a lasting effect of 3-5 hours. Use injections when wanting to reduce blood sugar levels after eating that meal.
- 2. Fast and short acting type, clear, colorless, effective for 30-60 minutes, maximum action at 2-4 hours and lasting about 5-7 hours. Mostly injected half an hour before meals. To control sugar levels after a meal or to reduce blood sugar quickly, in the case of very high blood sugar.
- 3. Medium action type Opaque Shaking the bottle, must be homogeneous before use. It lasts for 2-4 hours, its maximum action is 6-12 hours and lasts for 18-24 hours. It is used as the main insulin for diabetes treatment.
- 4. Long-acting type, clear appearance, colorless, active in 2 hours, no peak activity And has an active effect for 24 hours. Used for injections to increase the amount of insulin in the blood throughout the day. And can prevent low blood sugar.
- There is also Insulin mixed Which combines fast-acting insulin with medium-acting types in various ratios, convenient for patients who use both types of insulin Characteristic as a turbid solution, must be shaken gently before every use.
Why use insulin by injection method
- If the patient gets insulin by eating The drug is destroyed by gastric juice in the digestive system. Therefore having to use the direct injection method into the body
- The injection method is usually injected under the skin. But must be under strict medical advice
Drug preparation in case of using insulin bottle
- Check drug characteristics If it is clear water type, must not be viscous, colorless. If it is turbid type, suspended sediment. Roll the medicine bottle on both palms gently to allow the medicine to be mixed throughout the bottle. Absolutely do not shake the bottle. Because it will cause foam and cause the amount of drug not being in the amount
- If the patient uses insulin Turbid water and clear water at the same time Always drink clear liquid medicine first. Because if sucking on turbid water before clear water Medications that are turbid may be mixed. Makes the insulin clear water look different When sucking two drugs mixed in the same needle, should be injected immediately or within 15 minutes, because if left for a long time will change the action of the drug
Where can I inject insulin?
- Can be sprayed on the abdomen, both legs, hips, upper arms, and both sides, and must use alcohol to wipe the injection area. Do not repeat the same injection more than 1 time in 1-2 months as it may cause the injection area to become lumpy. Hard kidney When pulling the needle out, use a cotton ball to gently press. Do not massage the injection site. Because the drug is absorbed too quickly Until may cause low blood sugar And in the next injection, should be injected 1 inch away from the original spot
In addition to using conventional syringes There are also 2 types of insulin injections, which are
1. Insulin injection pen Looks like a large fountain pen By having insulin in a small glass tube fitted directly into the pen Which is currently very popular Due to being convenient to carry and use. Able to do so by rotating the screw according to the desired number, then getting the insulin amount accordingly No need to take the medicine out of the bottle But the price is quite high
2. Insulin pump Is a device that will be attached to the patient at all times, with a needle pierced under the skin connected to the computer controlled device Which is programmed to inject low-dose insulin into the body at all times And inject more insulin before meals Is an imitation of normal people
When does the body need to receive the hormone insulin from the outside?
As already mentioned that In the event that the patient has pancreatic problems Is a patient with thyroid poisoning Including diabetes Since high blood sugar levels (more than 100 mg / dL) need to be received urgently insulin into the body. To reduce the level of sugar in the blood to stop symptoms that may be more severe than before
For the insulin hormone used in the replacement. Doctors have taken it from 2 sources, namely genetic modification (MGO) and extracted from the pancreas of mammals like pigs and cows. However, doctors tend to use insulin first. Due to being very similar to human insulin And rarely cause allergies In which the insulin is injected from the outside into the body, only the method of "injection" is used In the past, insulin has been introduced into the body by eating before. But appeared to have been destroyed by gastric juice in the digestive tract completely Therefore having to inject under the skin instead To maximize the benefits of external insulin
What causes the body to produce less insulin?
The main reason that the body is unable to produce insulin. Tend to have problems with the pancreas Which is the origin of direct production of insulin Which may be caused by inflammation Or caused by an infection At the same time, if a patient is suffering from thyroid poisoning There is also a chance that the secretion of insulin hormones is less than normal.
Supplementary food Insulin production in the body
The pancreas is an organ in the digestive and endocrine systems. Important for our body Has 2 important functions: producing insulin to control blood sugar levels And creating enzymes for fat and protein metabolism If the pancreas produces little or no insulin Will cause sugar to remain in the bloodstream Resulting in elevated blood sugar levels Until may have diabetes But luckily, nature has provided substances that help with insulin production in the body. By helping to increase beta cells for the pancreas And also helps to reduce diabetes Including correct eating habits.
Many vegetables that are suitable for consumption to help reduce blood sugar and help produce insulin include red cabbage, which has a red coloring substance called betalains. It is beneficial for cancer patients, diabetes, okra. Can be consumed by slicing okra and soaking it in water overnight. After that, consuming okra juice the next day, Chinese bitter gourd. Even though it has a very bitter taste, it stimulates the pancreas, lentils seeds into small square spices. With trineline to reduce blood sugar levels, turmeric, cinnamon or cinnamon Sri Lanka Causing the cells to be sensitive to insulin And works similar to natural insulin produced by the pancreas Cinnamon may be sprinkled in meals in tea.
