Abstract: In this paper we would like to draw your attention on ?Insulin Abuse? and it?s Forensic Aspects. We?ve discussed about ?Hypoglycemia? and death cases related to it; it can be basically of three types ? 1. Suicidal, 2. Homicidal, 3. Accidental. Most of the cases of Hypoglycemia are mainly accidental cases. The normal insulin level for insulin level for serum is <25MIU/ml and if its increases from 18 to 276MIU/ml then it could be diagnosed to hyperinsulinemia. Here, we?ve also shown the methods of how to diagnose hypoglycemia and what are the symptoms of it, how to treat a hypoglycemic patient in case of emergency and to save his/her life. Some people also take Insulin for sports purposes and to gain muscle which also cause harm to the health and sometimes leads to hypoglycemia. We hope that this paper can help the future researchers and students to gain some knowledge about this topic and for further reference.
