Case Report: Efficient Avoidance of Hospitalization for Diabetic Ketosis Utilizing Technosphere Inhaled Insulin

We describe the use of inhaled insulin for the therapy of diabetic ketosis/ketoacidosis in a patient with type 1 diabetes. In this situation high insulin levels are needed to metabolize ketone bodies and avoid hospitalization. Technosphere inhaled insulin (TI) may be an alternative to subcutaneously...

description We describe the use of inhaled insulin for the therapy of diabetic ketosis/ketoacidosis in a patient with type 1 diabetes. In this situation high insulin levels are needed to metabolize ketone bodies and avoid hospitalization. Technosphere inhaled insulin (TI) may be an alternative to subcutaneously injected fast-acting insulins, not only because of its rapid onset of action but also lack of stacking leading to late-onset hypoglycemia. In conclusion, TI may well be more efficacious and safer in the outpatient management of diabetic ketosis/ketoacidosis than standard subcutaneously injected rapid-acting insulin.
