Hi Shakim,
The best way to know exactly was measured for each variable is to look at the questionnaires located in the appendix of each final report. For Bangladesh 2017 SPA (https://dhsprogram.com/pubs/pdf/SPA28/SPA28.pdf) on page 213 you can see the section of the questionnaire which includes insulin. The question asks about INSULIN INJECTIONS [ANTI DIABETIC], so we can conclude that any injectable insulin was included in the variable.
Best,
Sara
