The study was reported at the IDF 20th World Diabetes Congress last month in Montreal and is titled ". The findings in '40 type 2 diabetic patients on OHA (oral-diabetic agent) who received metered dose buccal insulin spray showed improvement in glycemic control in terms of improvement in HbA1c values (Mean HbA1c value: 7.8% vs 7.3%) and fall in both fasting and postmeal glucose.' The efficacy was again proven and a secondary outcome was to monitor 'changes from baseline in clinical and laboratory findings and changes in buccal cytology at the end of 3 monthstreatment'. The conclusion stated that except 'for minorhypoglycaemic episodes, transient burning sensations and transient numbness in mouth, no other adverse effects were observed'. This Phase IV, in India and conducted by Generex's regional partner, again affirmed the unique safety profile to set aside any questions of safety and which again highlighted the potential role Oral-lyn will have in controlling post-prandial hyperglycemia. The Phase IV results also stated that 'recombinant human regular insulin metered dose buccal spray (Generex Oral-lyn and known as Oral Recosulinin India) appears to be well tolerated and highly preferred by patients.' It continued to say that Oral-lyn 'had high acceptability in patients'. When have you ever heard Type 2 patients that were not yet treated with insulin therapy to say they actually 'preferred' insulin? With no safety issues in over 10 years of trials and the FDA recognizing both the reports of efficacy and the unique safety profile, it is no wonder Drs. Pozzilli and Raskin remarked in regards to Oral-lyn's onset and duration of effect that this 'fact alone would seem to make the oral insulin spray an ideal candidate for prandial glycaemic control.' Mannkind's Afresa has also had positive efficacy data, and while it has been studied in a far greater amount of patients it has not enjoyed the level of post-prandial hyperglycemia control as has been reported to Oral-lyn. Afresa lingers in the bloodstream longer than what investigators have found for Oral-lyn. Oral-lyn is available as a 1 UNIT per spray dose, while Afresa comes in two larger dose sizes, so while Mr. Mann claims no titration is needed with Afresa inhalable insulin, a diabetic that finds him or herself eating an unplanned piece of chocolate cake one or two hours post meal may find his glucose levels do not agree. For Oral-lyn, the delivery devise is built to provide fine tuning post meal dosing. It is as simple as taking another quick spray. While with Afresa, this part of the equation appears much more complex. Mannkind executives insist this is not the case, and I will leave it to them to convince skeptical diabetics and their endocrinologists."
...effect, to achieve improved clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure and reduced left-ventricular ejection fraction," the authors write. "Although the 10 percent primary end point hazard reduction that we recorded was somewhat less than that noted in other heart failure trials, this treatment effect is relative to a dose of losartan that is known to achieve substantial AT receptor antagonism, rather than to placebo."
The researchers concluded: "Careful titration by use of low infusion rates of dobutamine and norepinephrine is recommended to avoid potential arrhythmogenic effects and excessive vasoconstriction, respectively. (Am J Vet Res 2009;70:1236-1242)."
"It's important to note during Respiratory Care Week that the Contour CPAP Pillow is ideal for use both during titration and at home" says Scott Davis...
