Abstract
Pharmaceutical compositions that include an insulin drug-oligomer conjugate, a fatty acid component, and a bile salt component are described. The insulin drug is covalently coupled to an oligomeric moiety. The fatty acid component and the bile salt component are present in a weight-to-weight ratio of between 1:5 and 5:1. Methods of treating an insulin deficiency in a subject in need of such treatment using such pharmaceutical compositions are also provided, as are methods of providing such pharmaceutical compositions.
