I know it’s not a “yes” or “no” answer, but I wanted to see what people’s opinions or experiences were regarding switching from Prozinc to Lantus.
George is doing ok on Prozinc and most days spends a lot of time in the blues and greens, so I don’t want to lose any progress, but he still bounces a lot too (like a lot) so I didn’t know if Lantus might help smooth that out. I want to give him the best chance at regulation and remission as possible, but since he’s seemed to make decent progress on Prozinc I also don’t want to risk setting him back.
For background, George was diagnosed in January and started on Vetsulin. He switched to Prozinc in April, and I just started following the Modified Prozinc Method of dosing (MPM) at the end of May (similar to Lantus TR)…that’s when he finally started seeing decent numbers.
Initially I was intimidated to ask for Lantus because the dose timing needs to be SO precise and I was super stressed and felt that was one more added pressure, but I’ve found that I always shoot at the same time anyway so that really shouldn’t be an issue. That Prozinc has a little flexibility is nice for peace of mind though just in case anything comes up ever.
Any advice or experience would be appreciated!
