Ready-made human insulin pools for the treatment of diabetes mellitus

Abstract

Proper knowledge of insulin use is important for the effective treatment of diabetes. There is an opinion that a significant part of patients who are not currently receiving insulin do not have optimal diabetes compensation and could better control the disease when switching to insulin therapy. In mixtures of NPH and simple insulin, the latter retains its activity for a long time. This is true statement for both human and animal insulin. Unlike the previous ones, all NPH drugs currently supplied by major pharmaceutical companies have the same level of protamine and do not contain an excess of protamine that could bind added simple insulin (regular). Ready-made mixtures of human insulin are pre-mixed preparations of various durations of action.
