Relation between 40 iu and 100 iu insuline dose.

[Purusharth]

I want to know the calculation between 10 units of 30/70 insuline of 40 iu with equivalent dose of 100 iu insuline. Many times in journeys it become essential to use other type of 30/70 insuline. Please help...

You can get really valid clarification from the doctor who prescribed insulin for you.I have been on insulin since more than three years but hardly know anything about insulin other than that I use.In fact,now that you have mentioned,I now understand that there different methods for measuring insulin units.We all know that insulin can be dangerous if improperly used.You seem to be moving across countries and therefore it is essential that you have a comprehensive list of compatible alternatives.Otherwise,you will not only face a dilemma but also a potential risk.Perhaps a search in the web can help you
