Hi,
Yes, mixtard 30 can be used in place of human mixtard 30/70. Both of these are premixed insulins with a fixed combination of 3 parts of short acting regular or soluble insulin (30%) and 7 parts of intermediate acting isophane insulin (70%). Since there is no difference between these two hence you can take mixtard 30 safely in place of human mixtard 30/70.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
