Not sure buddy?
Ive always used the humulinR when experimenting with it
myself. Im not sure what the active time is on the one you mentioned.

Isophane insulin suspension
U-100
(NPH insulin)
biosynthetic human

Onset Action
3–4 hrs
Time to Peak
6–12 hrs
Duration of Action
18–28 hrs

IMO, this is no good for the pourpse needed for BB. It's active for far to long. If your going to use slin, start with humilin R and see how your body reacts, if you're good with carb & meal timing IMO humlog is the way to go but be warned it's very fast acting.
Hope this helps.

No I can't say I have as it's easy enough to get slin here from the chemist. I do know a frw people who have and they've never had a problem. No script required etc.
