NPH insulin is cloudy and has an onset of 1–3 hours. Its peak is 6–8 hours and its duration is up to 24 hours. [9]It has an intermediate duration of action, meaning longer than that of regular and rapid-acting insulin, and shorter than long acting insulins (ultralente, glargine or detemir).
The advantage of NPH is its low cost, the fact that you can mix it with short-acting forms of insulin, thereby minimizing the number of injections that must be administered, and that the activity of NPH will peak 4–6 hours after administration, allowing a bedtime dose to balance the tendency of glucose to rise with the dawn, along with a ...
Examples of intermediate-acting insulins (peak 4–10 hours) are: Isophane insulin, neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH) (Humulin N, Novolin N) Insulin zinc (Lente) Examples of long-acting insulins (duration 24 hours, often without peak) are: Extended insulin zinc insulin (Ultralente) Insulin glargine (Lantus) Insulin detemir (Levemir)
Lente insulin (from Italian lento, "slow"; also called insulin zinc suspension) was an intermediate duration insulin that is no longer used in humans. [1] The onset of lente insulin is one to two hours after the dose is administered, and the peak effect is approximately 8 to 12 hours after administration, with some effects lasting over 24 hours ...

[32] - Rapid acting (i.e. insulin lispro) with onset in 15 minutes and duration of about 4 hrs. - Short acting (i.e. regular insulin) with onset in 30 minutes and duration of about 6 hrs.
