Hello everyone!
I’ve made a post explaining everything here.
The TL;DR of it:
My boy was diagnosed a while back and was initially prescribed Novolin. Thankfully, a diet change was all that was needed at that time.
His glucose was under control since then, but after a vet visit this year, his glucose started getting higher. I believe this was due to the medication they’d put him on.
He was finally prescribed ProZinc at 2 units, once a day. I haven’t started him on the insulin because I’d like some guidance on how many units to start at and I wanted a free day to be able to monitor and do a curve.
Edit: It’s the morning after my post and I gave him less than half of 1u. I don’t have the syringes with the half marks. Can anyone advise? Vet was the one who suggested 2 units a day, based off of his weight.
