Q: Okay to use Apidra's faster onset and peak for small children?

Hi,

Very positive feedbacks I hear on the web here and there and from CWD parents about Apidra's faster onset/peak of action and smaller/shorter DIA which as you know if used properly could greatly improve control. What's the FDA's position on using Apidra for ~5 year old kids? I know though that many endocrinologists use it for children anyway. But is that so for smaller (~5 year old) kids too?

Thank you very much.
