Q: Can any one of my fellow diabetologists, share with me the most successful insulin regimen for juvenile onset diabetes?

A:In my opinion, the best regimen is to use three doses of Humalog pre-meals and two doses of NPH pre-breakfast and pre-dinner or one dose of NPH at bedtime. The best is to use Glargine with Humalog, if available.
