Insulins are believed to act on a specific cellular receptor. Insulin NPH is given subcutaneously and has a peak action occurring 8–12 hours after injection. The duration of action is 18–24 hours. It is the recommended insulin in previously untreated diabetics. Highly purified insulins are ...
The potential benefits of rapid-acting insulin analogs versus regular human insulin are that the analogs have earlier onset and peak of biologic activity, resulting in lower postprandial glucose levels; a shorter duration of action, resulting in less late-prandial hypoglycemia; and less biologic variab...
The peak effect of regular insulin usually persisted for several hours, and the total duration of action was 16.2 +/- 1.1 h (range, 9--24). Both the time of peak effect and the total duration of action were considerably prolonged compared to data provided in standard textbooks. Free ...
Basal insulin peglispro (BIL) has a longer duration of action than conventional insulin analogues and a hepato‐preferential mechanism of action. This study assessed whether BIL was non‐inferior to isophane insulin (NPH) in reducing HbA1c in insulin‐naïve patientswith type 2 diabetes, when ...
Although multiple mechanisms explain the prolonged insulin duration of action in kidney disease, the effects of semaglutide on insulin action are unknown. Presentation: 6/3/2024Musleh AnisaRauf Mohammad TalhaAfroze EmanAl-Bacha SouadJournal of the Endocrine Society...

intensive insulin treatmentBackground: Injection of insulin lispro (LP) before meals provides a more physiologic insulin activity profile than regular human insulin, but the relatively short duration of action of LP may allow the blood glucose (BG) level to increase during the late postprandial ...
There was no difference as to the duration of action. This is contrary to some earlier reports stating that protamine-bound biosynthetic human insulin has a shorter duration of action than porcine preparations. The onset of the hypoglycaemic action in type IIa diabetics is significantly more rapid ...
CONCLUSIONS: Use of insulin glargine compared with NPH is associated with less nocturnal hypoglycemia and lower post-dinner glucose levels. These data are consistent with peakless and longer duration of action of insulin glargine compared with NPH. Achievement of acceptabl...
