How Much

[Barbara Carella]

My cat Simon is about 14 years old and is on prozinc insulin. I use a Relion meter. At what number do you not give any insulin?

 

[Carl & Polly & Bob (GA)]

The usual advice is to not give any insulin if you get a test of 200 or less at shot time.
What sort of numbers are you seeing, and what is his current dose?

We usually recommend 200.for.newbies. If you've got enough data to know how you.kitty reacts to a given dose, it's safe to shoot lower.
