Is Novo Log Flex Pen Similar To Novo Log 70/30 Flex Pen?

My husband who is a kidney transplant is taking The regular novo log flex pen. On a recent visit to the Coomunity health center, since he has no medical plan, he was prescribed Novo log 70/30 flex pen....what is the difference since he was originally given the regular novo log flex pen.? We just noticed today when we went to the pharmacy at the center to pick up that and his immunosuppressants.

Novo log flex pen is a Injectable type of Insulin preperation.
It contains Insuli Aspart.
Whereas Novo log 70/30 flex pen contains 70% Insulin Aspart protamine suspension and remaining 30% insulin aspart as in above.this 70/30 preperation is believed to provide better glycemic control. otherthan that there is not much difference.
