LET’S TALK ABOUT
PATIENTS LIKE SARAH
A patient with type 1 diabetes struggling to maintain glycemic control
On basal insulin and injects insulin aspart before meals
Has an A1C of 8.2 and is concerned about hypoglycemia
Tired of scheduling meals around injections
Anxious about frequency of continuous glucose monitor (CGM) alerts
Makes Sarah
realize she’s not
maintaining control
GIVE PATIENTS LIKE SARAH IMPROVED MEALTIME CONTROL WITH AFREZZA® 1,2,7
- Afrezza delivers an ultra-rapid insulin response with absorption in the blood in <1 minute1,4
- Time to first measurable effect is ~12 minutes1
- Patients inhale Afrezza at mealtime, when they are ready to eat, with no needlesticks1
- Afrezza was proven to be non-inferior to subcutanous (SC) rapid-acting insulin in
clinical trials1,7

MEALTIME CONTROL
Afrezza® delivers a rapid insulin response for significant improvements in mealtime glycemic control2
POSTPRANDIAL GLUCOSE (PPG) LEVELS OVER 4 HOURS VS SC RAPID-ACTING COMPARATOR2
Study design:Afrezza efficacy was studied in a pilot, investigator-led, open label, multicenter trial of 60 patients with t1dm with A1C levels ≥6.5% and ≤10%. Individuals were randomized to treatment with Afrezza (n=26) or subcutaneous (SC) rapid-acting insulin (n=34). All were required to wear a real-time CGM throughout the trial.2

CONSIDERING THE PATIENT
TOTAL HYPOGLYCEMIA AS A FUNCTION OF TIME IN THE TYPE 1 STUDY7
Study design:This open-label non-inferiority trial compared the change in A1C from baseline to week 24 of prandial Afrezza (n=174) with that of SC rapid-acting insulin (n=170), both with basal insulin,
in adult patients (≥18 years) with type 1 diabetes and A1C of 7.5% to 10%.
Afrezza provided less A1C reduction than SC rapid-acting insulin,
and the difference was statistically significant. More subjects in the SC rapid-acting insulin group achieved the A1C target of ≤7%.7
