It is slow release I’m changing from immediate release so I wanted to make sure it was correct thank you!

It can be correct, is it the slow release? This means when you take it over 24 hours it is releasing so you then take it again for the next and so forth. The regular one should be taken each time at meal time. As it will release right away and deal with what you are eating so insulin is being helped.
