Measure
Pre-breakfast BIAsp 30
Subjects were started on BIAsp 30 (a biphasic formulation of insulin aspart (IAsp) in which 30% is soluble and the remaining 70% is protaminized insulin aspart) subcutaneously once daily (OD) pre-breakfast. Then they were intensified to twice daily (BID) or thrice daily (TID) if glycaemic control is not achieved, within three 12 weeks of treatment phases by titrating according to SMBG levels.
Pre-dinner BIAsp 30
Subjects were started on BIAsp 30 (a biphasic formulation of insulin aspart (IAsp) in which 30% is soluble and the remaining 70% is protaminized insulin aspart) subcutaneously once daily (OD) pre-dinner. Then they were intensified to BID or TID if glycaemic control is not achieved, within three 12 weeks of treatment phases by titrating according to SMBG levels.
