Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! No. I do not recommend using that insulin with out talking to your Vet. Novolin 70/30 is NOT the same as Novolin N and we do not know how TJ will react to Novolin 70/30. Novolin 70/30 contains a mixture that is 70% intermediate-acting insulin with 30% short-acting insulin, while Novolin N is all intermediate acting. I would suggest calling the pharmacy. I hope this helps!

Hi there. Sorry that you are having this issue. All insulins are very sensitive actually and not just the Caninsulin. That being said, the Caninsulin actually comes in a preloaded pen that you can use instead of dosing from a bottle and filling the syringes yourself. http://www.caninsulin.com/vetpen/about-vetpen.asp I recommend you talk to your vet about getting that instead. I think it would be easier for you. I hope this helps. If you have more questions please feel free to post again! Best wishes!

Hi Sarah, I'm glad Neelix is responding well to treatment. Yes, it should be fine to do the dosing you described. Just be sure she eats first before giving the insulin. Watch her closely after the 4 unit dose to make sure her blood sugar doesn't go too low. If you notice anything abnormal then get her to an ER vet for an exam. Best wishes.

As long as it wasn't over 86 F for and extended period of time, it should still be fine. Certain types of insulin can be kept at room temperature for up to 6 weeks. If you are concerned in any way, discard the bottle and get a new one from your veterinarian or local pharmacy.

Hello, it is not ideal to have for either scenario. Chiquita may be experiencing a higher blood glucose than normal during the longer interim period, and a normal or low blood glucose during the 8 hour interim. If your work schedule is not allowing you to administer the insulin twice daily, I would talk to your veterinarian about using an insulin that is given once daily. Hope this helps.
