Abstract:

Methods related to the treatment of diabetes and improving the control of blood glucose levels are provided. In particular, methods are provided for effectively reducing postprandial glucose excursions while reducing the incidence of clinically significant late postprandial hypoglycemia by administered an insulin composition in a form suitable for pulmonary administration. Additionally, methods for effectively reducing post-prandial glucose excursions while reducing the incidence of clinically significant late postprandial hypoglycemia by administered an insulin composition in a form suitable for pulmonary administration along with a long-acting basal insulin.
