Introduction: Type 2 diabetes is a progressive disease with significant risk for developing late complications. Objectives: This study aimed to determine if the discharge NPH and regular insulin doses of conventional therapy protocol in which optimal glycemic control can be achieved are similar at beginning or not. In other words, we compare two injection methods on type diabetes. Patients Methods: cross-sectional was performed hospital records II diabetic patients admitted from 2008-2013. Treatment initiated following proportions; morning NPH: 44%, dosage: 22%, evening 17% 17%. Insulin day has been were recorded based their mean, made. Finally, groups categorized. Group 1 consisted whose dose range mean data (±2 IU/mL) accordance participated group 2. Results: At day, 34.2±6.69, regular: 23.8±6.36, 21.26±6.75 20.74±5.51. The ratios that admission only 17.7% patients. Only 34.5% could include new 50% them didn’t fit any protocol. Conclusion: It suggested inject one-third total daily need as divide remained two-thirds between regular, equally. may decrease length stay time reach desired control.
