I'm wondering if anyone has read up on

the subject of allergies to "human insulin"

products.  I did a search on the online

PubMed and found numerous reports of

allergies  to "human insulin" products

and reports of individuals allergic to

multiple "human insulin" products.

That's one reason we really need animal-source

insulin in the U.S.  So that we have other options

available for allergic persons.

I always say that when they discovered new antibiotics,

they didn't pull the old ones off the market just because

they discovered a new one.  Instead, persons who have

a penicillin allergy still have other antibiotics on the market

that their physician can prescribe.  They don't have to wait

for those to be imported.

I hope that somewhere someone will wake up and see

that there is an urgent need for animal-source insulin

in the U.S. and do something to get it back on the market.
