There are several parts of the human body suitable for insulin injection, and diabetic patients should also choose to inject insulin from these parts. The main sites suitable for injection are abdomen, lateral upper arm, lateral thigh and buttocks. It should be injected in the abdomen. Avoid injection near the sides of the waist, because the subcutaneous tissue on both sides of the waist is relatively thin, and it is easy to prick the muscles when injecting.

2, choose the right needle

At present, there are many specifications of insulin injection needles. When choosing needles, you should choose shorter needles to avoid sticking to the muscle layer because the needles are too long. When choosing bricks, we should choose according to people's body shape. If you are too obese, the shortest needle can't reach the subcutaneous tissue.

3. Pay attention to the angle of the needle.

When injecting insulin, pay attention to the angle between the needle and the skin. The needle should be tilted when it is long, otherwise it will be easy to inject into the muscle layer. Needle length and needle insertion angle are generally 45 degrees. If the needle is short or for children, it will be fine if the needle is injected at 90 degrees.

Before injection: pre-mixed insulin should be shaken well;

If premixed insulin is used, as it is a suspension, it must be shaken up and down for more than ten times, and then injected, otherwise the concentration inside may be unbalanced, affecting the concentration of insulin, thus affecting the quality of hypoglycemic.

When injecting: the local skin should be kept clean and dry, and the injection speed should not be too fast;

Keep local skin clean and dry during insulin use. If these parts of insulin injection have induration or ulceration, be sure to avoid these parts for injection. Some patients will bring some insulin out of the needle tip when they find that the injection is finished. Pay attention to this. Generally speaking, this happens because the injection speed is too fast.

After injection: after insulin injection, you need to stay for ten seconds;

Be sure to stay under the skin for more than ten seconds after the injection, and then pull out the needle after the insulin is completely absorbed.

Can be used in combination with propolis in diabetes. The effect of propolis on diabetic patients is mainly reflected in lowering blood sugar. Its principle is to restore some pancreatic functions through its anti-inflammatory, immune and antioxidant properties, so that the damage of islet cells can be repaired and the function can be improved. Propolis and some substances it contains are of great significance for delaying the absorption of sugar and delaying or reducing the increase of blood sugar after meals. Propolis is widely used in clinic, but the difficulty of treatment lies in the low purity of propolis itself, so it should be used cautiously and reasonably in clinic. Besides controlling blood sugar, propolis can also reduce blood fat, improve blood circulation and protect the liver.

Dosage and method: Take 2 capsules twice a day with warm water.

Pay attention to two points when choosing: 1 Choose a big brand according to the brand, with good quality and good effect; 2 Look at the platform, whether the qualifications are complete, whether there is a traceability mechanism, whether it stands with consumers, and whether it is guaranteed after sale.
