In insulin therapy there have also been novelties with the arrival of new insulins (insulin analogues) specially designed to have better pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties. New possibilities for insulin delivery are in development, which could spare the patients from painful injections. These novelties are reviewed in this article.
