the unknown. Is a long acting drug of any kind bad or dangerous... well yes, every drug is dangerous. I don't think that should stop people from taking them or companies stop from producing and researching them. Once a week long acting insulin would be nice for some. Why not if you have shown you can handle a 24 hour dose with no problem? Maybe baby steps on some of these longer doses if the risks are there. Great video love your opinion, keep them up... just countering your point :-)
If one gets pancreatitis from Byetta, the treatment involves discontinuing the Byetta. If the Byetta is designed into a time delivery method, the Byetta can't be withdrawn at the onset of the assault. This can turn an episode that causes injury into one that causes death because the root cause of the pancreatits episode cannot be addressed in a timely manner.
The problem solved by the extended version is to avoid some injections? I don't view this as a significant advantage.
Great counter insight. My question is what % of people would be at risk for a weekly dose that goes wrong? What % would be acceptable? Tough to answer I know, but I don't think the half-life of these drugs are the demon. You could take too much fast acting insulin you could have a worse time treating that. I think if you are going to say these long acting drugs are dangerous, then they all are dangerous and should be taken with risk. I think it is more the question of the...
