Can Caninsulin be diluted?

Caninsulin is a mixture of amorphous (soluble) insulin and crystalline insulin. The crystalline part is relatively insoluble which is why the insulin activity lasts more than a few hours. Caninsulin has a balance between the amorphous and crystalline parts. If Caninsulin is diluted, this could result in an alteration of the pharmacokinetics. In addition, the stability of the new suspension is unknown.
