Insulin does not have any interaction problems that I know of - BUT diabetics are warned against taking certain medications (like the heavy cold medicines) due to how the medications react with your blood sugar levels. One thing to avoid entirely - St. Johns Wort should NEVER be taken by diabetics - it can adversely affect your blood sugar levels.
Anything that you are interested in trying - talk to your Doc or the Pharmacist and they will be able to give you an idea if it is okay or not.

I suggest to ask your phamacist as you do not specifiy fast or long acting insulin. He/she can give you a list of what to avoid usually at no charge. Sometime it's best to consult the pro.
