This early observation was forgotten and the feasibility of inhaled insulin was again demonstrated in humans in l971, but it was uncertain if the correct dose could be reliably given (2). Then in the 1980s a series of nebulization studies in humans further demonstrated the feasibility of inhaled insulin and showed that with appropriate devices, insulin could be inhaled reliably (3,4).
