UPDATED GUIDANCE: ABCD and PCDOS have revised our guidance to support switching from Levemir insulin.

Just 6 months to go until Levemir’s anticipated supply end, with Abasaglar now unavailable for switching and very limited extra supply of Humulin I.

Our most recent data shows over 40,000 people were still remaining to be switched at the end of Q2, so please share the guidance and put it into practice!

Further support, including a video and a need-to-know guide, coming very soon.

Discussions with GPs across England suggest that some uncertainty remains about what the pathway for prescribing tirzepatide in primary care requires in practice. In particular, the concept of “wraparound care”, and how it should be implemented alongside prescribing, can feel unclear.

Our colleagues from NHS England explain all!
