Insulin Measuring (Humolog)

[T-Biggs]

I have done a ton of research on the use of insulin over the past months but I cannot seem to find the answer to measuring the right amount of insulin (Humolog).
In other words I will be starting out with 2iu's post workout and I have Therumo U-100 (1cc 28Gx1/2") now does 1 unit = 1 iu so that the first line on the syringe equals 2units/iu's and increases by 2 each line until the measurements end up at the 10, 20, 30 etc.......marker on the syringe?

Yes, you are correct. Consequently, 2 IU's will appear to be an extremely small amount of fluid. If you're using Humalog for the first time, it's wise to start out slowly as you're doing, as it has a very fast onset and I've seen a lot of guys get low because they were used to Humalin. Good luck.

I started out with 6 units, and worked up by 2 units every other injection.
