Fast-acting insulin very Ultra - short acting Insulin.. Faster in reducing the level of glucose in the blood, but a short effect in the body

Fast-acting insulin very Ultra - short acting Insulin:

You're right, there's no such thing as "ultra-short acting insulin" currently available for medical use. However, your statement accurately describes the key differences between rapid-acting (fast-acting) insulin and regular insulin:

Rapid-acting insulin:

• Onset: Starts working within 15-30 minutes.
• Peak effect: Reaches maximum effectiveness in 1-2 hours.
• Duration: Lasts for about 2-4 hours.
• Uses: Primarily used before meals to prevent blood sugar spikes after eating, or to correct high blood sugar levels.
• Examples: Novolog, Humalog, Apidra.

Regular insulin:

• Onset: Starts working in 30-60 minutes.
• Peak effect: Reaches maximum effectiveness in 2-4 hours.
• Duration: Lasts for 6-8 hours.
• Uses: Generally used before meals or at bedtime to provide longer-lasting blood sugar control.
• Examples: Humulin R, Regular Novolin.

As you mentioned, rapid-acting insulin is faster at lowering blood sugar than regular insulin because it absorbs and works quicker in the body. However, its effect also wears off sooner, hence the shorter duration.

Other considerations:

Here are some additional points to consider:

- Ultra-rapid acting insulin:

While a term not used in current medical practice, researchers have explored developing even faster-acting insulins with onset times under 15 minutes. However, such insulins haven't yet been approved for clinical use.

- Individual variations:

The exact timing and duration of insulin effects can vary depending on individual factors like metabolism, injection site, and other medications.

- Importance of doctor's guidance:

Choosing the right type and dosage of insulin is crucial and should always be determined by a healthcare professional based on your individual needs and blood sugar control goals.

Types of insulin used in the treatment of diabetes.. Very fast-acting. Short-acting. Average effect. Long-acting

Types of insulin used in the treatment of diabetes

Insulin is manufactured on multiple forms, and each type works quickly different from the other. Most patients are forced to use more than one type of insulin to try to simulate the natural physiological secretion of insulin in the human body.

And can be likened to multiple types of insulin the difference between runners in the Olympic Games.There types of insulin, such as hostility being at full speed, where it starts quickly and then up to the maximum speed and then quickly dismissed. There are other types of insulin, such as a marathon runner or a long-distance race which starts slowly and continues to be done slowly and stay in the body for a long time. There are types of intermediate-acting insulin is not Bsriah like hostility that is running at full speed and not Balbtiih such hostility, who is locked in a long-distance race.

Can not describe the type of insulin that is better than the other, all the species important to control blood sugar. And vary the patient's response to insulin from one person to another and the doctor alone is the one who determines the type and dates to give him insulin to the patient.

• Short-acting insulin Short - acting insulin
• Medium-acting insulin Intermediate - acting insulin
• Long-acting insulin Long - acting insulin

Short-acting insulin Short - acting insulin.. Can be administered intravenously using the pump

Known as a short-acting insulin and from the normal insulin have Nobolin seen, Humeulen seen (Humulin R, Novolin R) Also called insulin dissolved or net. It is a solution of a mixture of textured zinc insulin purified from impurities. There is this kind of insulin in the form of bottles, and a cartridge filled with insulin, and injection prior packaging. And normal insulin taken with a meal, such as insulin for Aspreu but takes a greater impact after being injected under the skin in order to function compared to insulin Aspreu where the work begins within 30 minutes after injection. Therefore, this type of insulin is injected usually within 30-45 minutes before eating a meal. And up to a maximum concentration of him in the blood within 2-4 hours and continue his work in the body for a period of 6-8 hours or more.

And normal insulin and Allispreu are the only types of insulin that can be administered intravenously using the pump and are therefore useful in emergency situations to treat patients who suffer from a coma sugar Alkithonip. Because other types of insulin are in the form of insoluble suspensions can not be given intravenously and never used in the treatment of ambulatory cases of high blood sugar.

Medium-acting insulin Intermediate - acting insulin.. Materials are mixed with lead to slow the absorption of insulin after subcutaneous injections

And examples:

** Alaezovan also called   NPH and it Himeulen Humulin N Or Nobolin Novolin N .

** Insulin Lint (Lente ) And it Himeulen the Humulin L And Nobolin the Novolin L . And there in the form of bottles, and a cartridge filled with insulin, and injection prior packaging. The so-called insulin Aezovan Allent insulin Aker Net or for being accost in the form of insoluble commentator.

These types of insulin takes a long time to absorb and begins its work where it is mixed with materials lead to slow the absorption of insulin After an injection under the skin and this explains the fuzzy color for Aezovan and insulin Allent, and continues its work in the body for a long time. 

The work begins Alaezovan within 1-2.5 hours after being injected under the skin, up to a maximum concentration of him in the blood after 4-10 hours and continue his work in the body to about 16 hours.And Allent insulin is a mixture of two types of insulin crystals of different size, very small crystals and constitute 30% of the mixture and aims to speed the absorption of insulin from the injection site and thus the speed of effect. The other type of insulin crystals are large and constitute 70% of the mixture leads to slow the absorption of insulin from the injection site but they give a long-term effect.

Up to a maximum concentration of Lint insulin in the blood within 4-12 hours after subcutaneous injection and continue to work within the body for a longer period of of insulin Alaezovan (12-18 hours). It is very similar to the insulin Alaezovan but might be more inclined to make a sensitivity in the body as it does not mix well with normal insulin compared insulin Pallaizovan. And medium-acting insulin works throughout the day when given in the morning. When injected into the evening it maintains a level of insulin throughout the night.

It must be emphasized to the patient should be mixing or shaking intermediate-acting insulin injection before being used for the distribution of insulin molecules in a good way within the solution.

Long-acting insulin Long - acting insulin.. Reduce the level of sugar in the blood within one hour of injection

Examples include insulin Alturalint ultralente   Like Himeulen yo (Humulin U ) And there in the form of injections. This type of insulin is absorbed slowly from the injection site and reach his maximum concentration in the blood within 6-10 hours, and continue his work in the body for 20 hours or more, but its effectiveness vary significantly from time to time. And is usually taken in the morning or before going to sleep, such as medium-acting insulin.

There is another type of long-acting insulin called Gelargen Glargine And known under the brand name Lantos (Lantus ) And is available in the form of injections and insulin-filled cartridge. And insulin Gelargen absorbs slowly from the injection site.

And begin its work in reducing the level of sugar in the blood within one hour of injection and continue his work in the body for 24 hours. It looks like natural insulin in the body to a large extent and maintains a constant level of blood sugar for more than 24 hours. Studies indicate that insulin Gelargen less dangerous to make a sharp drop in blood sugar during the night (although it may lead to lower blood sugar levels in the early morning). Or overweight compared insulin Pallaizovan, but the incidence of pain at the injection site larger than insulin Alaezovan. 

And given insulin Gelargen only once a day. And can give him any time during the day, but this should be done at the same time each day. And when you give him this medicine for the first time may require two to four days to reach a constant level in the blood during the twenty-four hours, and this may vary from one person to another. It is important to know that insulin Gelargen varies in color from other types of long-acting insulin as in net solution, while other types of this category turbid or blurry color. And therefore it should be on patients who use both a short-acting insulin (net) with a long-acting insulin into account so as to prevent confusion.

And must not be mixed the insulin Gelargen with any other type of insulin in the same syringe and insulin cartridge must be saved and pens containing insulin Gelargen in room temperature for 1-2 hours after removing from the refrigerator before use. As is the case with other types of insulin, when you use this drug actually it can to keep it out of the refrigerator for up to 30 days in the degree of less than 25 degrees Celsius.

Insulin may be used the Gelargen alone or with other types of insulin or with drive-lowering sugar in patients with type II diabetes. Use has been approved for children aged more than 6 years of age. And when the patient is converted to use insulin Gelargen it must take a short-acting insulin to cover meals that the dose is adjusted later.

The side effects of insulin very limited Gelargen. May suffer about 3-4% of patients of redness, pain, itching, swelling, and inflammation of the injection site. These complications usually disappear within a few days and sometimes may be long.

A mixture of insulin Insulin mixtures.. Mixing short-acting insulin with medium-acting insulin to mimic the natural cycle of the secretion of insulin from the body

Are usually mixing short-acting insulin with medium-acting insulin to mimic the natural cycle of the secretion of insulin from the body. For example there is a way that might be pursued in patients who can control the level of sugar they have a good way with three injections of insulin, which include a mixture of short-acting insulin with insulin Aloezovan average effect (NPH ) At dinner. The other way is by using four injection include injection separate from insulin short-acting at dinner and Aloezovan insulin before going to sleep, and this may be less dangerous to a sharp decline in blood sugar during the night than those recipe containing three injections of insulin.

And there is a mix of insulin Aezovan average effect and normal short-acting insulin intended for injection were mixed in the same syringe by the manufacturer for ease of use and to avoid error in the calculation of the proportion of mixing the two types of insulin when needed. For example, a mixture of 70% of Alaezovan with 30% of normal insulin and is known as the 30/70 Nobolin   Or 30/70 Humolin. There is also a mixture of 50% of Alaezovan with 50% of normal insulin and is known as the 50/50 Humolin.
