actrapid is a soluble insulin and novorapid is insulinaspart
actrapid is clear and monotard is cloudy
I wouldn't say so, if you want fast acting insulin use novorapid, actrapid is good for long lasting carbohydrates eg. bread.
ONLY REGULAR insulin can be given IV.Rapid-insulin analogs (insulin aspart, insulin lispro and insulin glulisine) may also be administered intravenously for glycemic control in selected clinical situations under appropriate medical supervision.
Relion Humulin is the exact same thing as Humlin, but Relion Humlin is manufactured exclusively for WalMart.
"Diabetes" is what one has. Diabetic is how one is.
Novolin is a short-acting insulin, taken for correcting high blood glucose and before or after eating. Novolog is a long-lasting insulin, taken to stabilize blood glucose between the times that you take your short-acting doses.
Human Insulin, is a replica of the insulin found naturally in human beings. These are synthetically prepared. An insulin analogue however is an altered form of this human insulin, by addition,subsitution or substraction of one/or more amino acid chain/s. This is done to make insulin more safe and effective for human use.
They are two different proteins, like the difference between a train and a robot. The difference between one protein and the other is the amino acid sequence that comprises that protein and the molecular bonding that determines its shape. Shape determines function in a protein. If it loses its shape it can't do its job. The shape of insulin and hemoglobin is different so insulin binds with glucose and hemoglobin binds with oxygen.
Pills are for Type 2 diabetics. Type 1 diabetics use shots or an insulin pump.
The gene of insulin has a different sequence of molecular bases than the gene of testosterone.
Insulin reduces the amount of sugar in your bloodstream to an acceptable level, and glucagon raises the amount of sugar in your bloodstream to an acceptable level. Glycogen is a stored type of the sugar, Glucose, that can readily be added to the bloodstream by glucagon.
whata re the drug interactions between insulin and anti-asthma drugs?
