Question

"A nurse is teaching a client with diabetes mellitus about self-management. Which statement would be correct about the administration of lispro insulin?"

Answer 1

Answer:

Every diabetic patient who applies insulin should know how important it is to apply 15 minutes before meals or 15 minutes later; You should never stop taking your food, as it could cause hypoglycemia if only insulin is applied. The doctor will indicate how many times lispro insulin should be injected each day. You must follow the instructions on the prescription label carefully; Ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Use lispro insulin exactly as directed. Do not use a larger or smaller amount of the medicine, or use it more often than your doctor says in the prescription.
