How do you give an injection for diabetes?
Pills (primarily for Type Two Diabetes) and injections (Type One).

Work on Inhalation Systems for insulin are under development.

What type of insulin is given orally?
Currently there is no form of insulin you can take by swallowing it. The simple reason why is that your stomach acids destroy insulin, so taking it orally would have no effect. This is why diabetics have to inject insulin.Clinical trial studies are underway to test whether Type 1 diabetes can be prevented or delayed by taking oral insulin. In people with Type 1 diabetes, their own immune systems attack the pancreatic cells that produce insulin. The hypothesis is that when insulin is taken orally and digested, it may induce tolerance in the body's own immune system, quieting the immune response.[1][1] NIH, "Study tests oral insulin to prevent type 1 diabetes," NIH News, January 31, 2007 (see link on left sidebar) In addition to the two correct responses above, there is an inhaled form of insulin (Exubera), which became available in the last year. Because it is inhaled and not swallowed, this insulin bypasses the GI tract, and is available immediately for use by the body. UpdateExubra - mentioned above, failed to take a market share so badly (due to cost and dosing difficulties) it was withdrawn from the market in October 2007 (it was launched in the USA in September 2006).
