The investigational inhaled insulin product (Exubera) could prove a boon to patients with diabetes, cutting or eliminating the need for injections. So indicate findings from a phase III trial presented at the annual meeting of the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE). For patients with type 1 diabetes, a regimen of inhaled insulin before meals and one injection at night could control blood glucose as well as or possibly better than injections alone. These results add to some phase III data presented last June that showed a small but significant number of patients with type 2 diabetes reached recommended blood glucose levels at 6 months.
