Hi Sharon, it is not a cure or anything but I use symlin and I’m able to decrease my insulin dose and loose some weight. Maybe ask your Dr about symlin. It doesn’t work for everyone but does for me. And I feel it’s safer than ozempic

Hi, yes, insulin does expire. Check the expiration date on the box. Also, insulin does not work as well if you have scare tissue and put the needle in that site or if pump has been slightly moved from where you originally put it. Insulin resistance is when you have had diabetes for a long long time and it just doesn’t work like it did b4. There are meds like symlin you can use then but your Dr will know what’s going on and assist you.
So, check these things out and perhaps contact your Dr. Also if your pump is going to last 10 days or whatever and your insulin expires b4 then, toss it and use a new bottle so the insulin is not expired while in the pump. Hope this helps.

I tried Symlin many years ago, probably over 20 years, and stopped due to severe nausea. I now take daily CBD gummies with no THC for over 6 years now and I’ve been on Ozempic for 3 years. I’m considering going back on Symlin if it’s cheaper than Ozempic. I see my Endo today and we’ll discuss it.

Symlim is a medication you inject as an injection with each meal and your insulin. It works to be able to lessen your insulin dose and may help to help you loose weight. It’s very easy to use but pending on insulin, it can get expensive.
