Insulin lispro is a rapid-acting insulin analogue used to mimic postprandial insulin spikes in diabetic individuals. The onset of action of insulin lispro is 10-15 minutes. Its activity peaks 60 minutes following subcutaneous injection and its duration of action is 4-5 hours.
Insulin lispro is a rapid-acting, human insulin analog that works parenterally to lower blood glucose by regulating the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Insulin lispro works by binding to a glycoprotein receptor specific to insulin on the surface of target cells.
Insulin lispro is a rapid-acting insulin analog which is normally administered SubQ as a premeal component of the insulin regimen or as a continuous SubQ infusion and should be used with intermediate- or long-acting insulin.
Regular insulin, the rapid-acting insulins aspart/glulisine/lispro or the ultra-rapid-acting insulins Lispro-aabc and Faster aspart can be used to correct high glucose levels (133). In type 2 patients, 1-2 units of insulin will lower the blood glucose by 30-50 mg/dl.
Insulin lispro, sold under the brand name Humalog among others, is a modified type of medical insulin used to treat type 1 and type 2 diabetes. [5] It is delivered subcutaneously either by injection or from an insulin pump .
Insulin Lispro is a rapid acting human insulin analog indicated to improve glycemic control in adult and pediatric patients with diabetes mellitus. (1) Insulin Lispro Dosage and Administration. See Full Prescribing Information for important administration instructions. (2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4)
Insulin lispro, an FDA-approved insulin analog, is an effective treatment for regulating hyperglycemia in type 1 and 2 diabetes. This medication extends its utility beyond its primary indication, finding application in off-label uses such as managing mild-to-moderate diabetic ketoacidosis, gestation ….
Insulin lispro is a soluble, rapid-acting human insulin analog that is used to lower postprandial blood glucose levels and is most effective when administered immediately before a meal. It has a rapid onset of action, and thus can exert its effects quicker than human insulin (Howey, D.C. et al, 1994).
Insulin lispro, of recombinant DNA origin, is a human insulin analogue created by reversal of the amino acids at positions 28 and 29 on the human insulin B chain. Insulin lispro was the first insulin analogue to receive approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Insulin lispro can be injected immediately before meals or even after meals. This short injection-meal interval contributes greatly to convenience, flexibility, treatment compliance, and patients’ quality of life, which in turn lead to better glycemic control.
