High blood sugar despite taking Insugen 30/70 (Human insulin) may mean that your insulin dose, meal timing, diet, or daily routine needs adjustment. Sweating and unconsciousness after increasing the insulin dose are signs of low blood sugar, which can be dangerous. Do not change the insulin dose on your own without medical advice. You should consult an endocrinologist or a doctor experienced in diabetes care. The doctor may review your blood sugar readings, food habits, and injection timing, and may advise blood tests or a different insulin plan. For diet, try to avoid sugary drinks, sweets, large amounts of white rice, fried foods, and packaged snacks. Eat smaller meals at regular times and include whole grains, vegetables, salads, pulses, eggs, fish, or lean meat. Choose fruits in moderation and avoid skipping meals, especially after taking insulin. Keep glucose biscuits or sugar with you in case of low sugar symptoms. Regular exercise, proper sleep, and frequent blood sugar monitoring are also important for better diabetes control.

Since your blood sugar levels are still around 200 mg/dL despite using insulin regularly, it is important to consult your doctor to review your diabetes treatment. High sugar levels may occur if the insulin dose is insufficient, the injection timing is incorrect, or diet and stress are affecting control. Sometimes insulin needs adjustment rather than adding a new medicine. Your doctor may advise blood tests, such as HbA1c, kidney function tests, and fasting and post-meal blood sugar levels, before changing treatment. In some patients, medicines such as metformin or other diabetes medications may be added to insulin, depending on overall health and kidney condition. Do not start any new medicine on your own, as this may cause low sugar or other side effects. Continue your daily walking and running, but also focus on diet control by reducing sweets, rice, sugary drinks, and excess carbohydrates. Eating smaller, balanced meals and checking blood sugar regularly can help improve control. Proper sleep and stress management are also important in diabetes management.

Since you have been managing diabetes for many years, it is important to continue your medicines regularly and not stop insulin suddenly. The good thing is that there may be some lower-cost options available. Insugen 30/70 is already considered one of the more affordable insulin types in India, but you can still check with generic or government pharmacies, where diabetes medicines and insulin are sometimes available at lower prices. Basalog is a long-acting insulin, and some similar biosimilar or generic versions may cost less while still giving good sugar control. However, do not change your insulin brand or dose on your own. Even if two insulins look similar, they may work slightly differently in the body. Changing insulin without medical advice may lead to low sugar levels or poor diabetes control. Your doctor can suggest a safer and more affordable alternative after reviewing your blood sugar readings, diet, and overall health. Along with medicines, continue following a diabetic diet, regular walking, and routine blood sugar testing to keep your diabetes under control in the long term.
