Insulin is always used for the treatment of insulin-dependent Diabetes mellitus (type I diabetes) and occasionally also for the treatment of therapy refractory non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (type II). This therapy is obligatory for individuals with ketoacidosis and it can be taken into consideration for all subjects who remain symptomatic, lose weight, or have continuously high blood glucose concentrations (in fasting state more than 7-8 mmol/l, postprandial more than 10-12 mmol/l) despite another treatment. Insulin can also become temporarily necessary during surgical interventions or acute diseases.
