Exubera The Effects on Diabetics |
||||
|
|
The release of Exubera, the
world’s first inhaled insulin therapy to be approved by the Food and
Drug Administration, will have significant effects on diabetics
nationwide. Produced by
Pfizer, this technological advance in medication provides a solution for
many people who, in the past, have refused any type of insulin.
The effects on diabetics of the
release of Exubera will also include the ability to medicate in public
without feeling like a social piranha.
For years, insulin dependent diabetics have been expected to
“disappear” while administering an injection.
With an inhaled form of insulin, treating themselves in public will
be as acceptable as taking a pain killer or using an asthma inhaler. Exubera’s effects on diabetics
will be life altering. No
longer will it be necessary to plan meal times as carefully, since Exubera
is a very fast-acting insulin that can be taken just minutes before a
meal. This means that
diabetics can go about their business in a normal fashion, rather than
interrupting their day or planning around their disease. |
