title: Effectiveness of insulin suppositories in diabetic patients.
abstract: Experimental insulin suppositories regulated postprandial hyperglycaemia in diabetic patients. The insulin suppositories seemed also to avoid hyperinsulinaemia. The formulation with more rapid dissolution of insulin, which contained a solid dispersed form of insulin, effectively reduced the insulin dose required.
