My son has been using NovoLog in his pump for a little over 2 years now. He was 3 when he started. I didn't realize it was news either.
ReplyDeleteBTW, he was on Lantus at the age of 3 also which is not FDA approved for that age. I guess we're just breaking laws all over the place.
I love your blog. Thanks so much for being our voice!!
