More than 80 years have elapsed since the discovery of insulin. The submitted paper analyzes the main contemporary trends of the development of insulin therapy which comprise the development of new insulin analogues and their use in modified insulin regimes, the development of preparations for inhalatory or oral administration, new techniques of administration and new ways of self-monitoring. The author mentions also non-traditional forms of insulin therapy such as transplantation of insulin producing tissue and in the conclusion she discusses trends of insulin administration in subjects without diabetes.
