Imagine being able to eliminate the three or four shots a day to just one every three months! That is what researchers and scientists have been working on for the past several years.
The injection dubbed with the name super insulin was developed in India and was patented and licensed to Life Science Pharmaceuticals in Connecticut.
The insulin was used on lab rats and the team of researchers was delighted to find that one shot every three months instead of the regular three to four shots a day sustain the lab rat’s blood sugar levels.
The clinical studies on humans are set to begin shortly and the pharmaceutical companies hope to have it on the market with a year or two. The super insulin took two years to developed and successful test on the lab rats so hopefully it will be available and on the market soon.
