These results indicate that Huminsulin 30/70 is not effectively regulating your blood sugar levels; therefore, you should reevaluate your insulin regimen instead of increasing your dosage. For improved fasting and post-meal management, speak with a diabetologist about modifying timing, injection method, diet, or switching to a basal-bolus regimen.
