lüll Alternatives routes of insulin delivery Lassmann-Vague V; Raccah DDiabetes Metab 2006[Dec]; 32 (5 Pt 2): 513-22Optimal glycaemic control is necessary to prevent diabetes-related complications. An intensive treatment, which could mimic physiological insulin secretion, would be the best one. However subcutaneous insulin treatment is not physiologic and represents a heavy burden for patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Consequently, more acceptable, at least as effective, alternative routes of insulin delivery have been developed over the past years. Up to now, only pulmonary administration of insulin (inhaled insulin) has become a feasible alternative to cover mealtime insulin requirements and one of the various administration systems was recently approved for clinical use in Europe and the United States. But, due to advances in technology, other routes, such as transdermal or oral (buccal and intestinal) insulin administration, could become feasible in a near future, and they could be combined together to offer non-invasive, efficacious and more physiological way of insulin administration to patients with diabetes.|Administration, Cutaneous[MESH]|Administration, Intranasal[MESH]|Administration, Oral[MESH]|Drug Delivery Systems/*methods[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Hypoglycemic Agents/administration & dosage/therapeutic use[MESH]|Insulin/*administration & dosage/therapeutic use[MESH]|Iontophoresis[MESH] |
