On the sheet
What's on the insulin log
Your pet's insulin details: the insulin and its strength, the syringe or pen type, and the dose and times your vet prescribed, copied in your own hand.
A box for your vet's instructions on what to do if a meal is refused or a dose is missed. Ask at your next visit and write the answer down, so nobody has to guess.
Fourteen rows, one per day, each with a morning and an evening injection: time, units given, food eaten (all, some or none), glucose if tested, and the initials of whoever gave it.
A notes column for appetite, energy, or anything unusual that day.
Filling it in
Keeping an insulin log your vet can use
Write what was given, not what was planned.If a dose was late, smaller or skipped, the log should say so, with the reason.
Note the meal every time.All, some or none, right next to each injection, so the two can be read together.
Glucose only when you test.Leave the column empty on other days, and tick the unit your meter shows at the top of the sheet: mg/dL or mmol/L.
Bring the sheets to every recheck.Two weeks per page makes it easy to lay a month or two side by side.
Not veterinary adviceThis log is a record, not veterinary advice, and it doesn't suggest a dose. Follow your vet's instructions for insulin, meals and testing, and call your vet if you're unsure about anything.
Prefer reminders on your phone? Pet Medication Tracker reminds you at each injection time and lets you mark the dose as given right from the notification, on iPhone and iPad. Free for one pet.
