Insulin lispro is a rapid-acting human insulin analog used to improve glycemic control in patients with diabetes mellitus. It acts quickly to lower blood glucose levels and is typically administered immediately before meals. Insulin lispro is approved and widely used in current diabetic management, both for type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
Pharmacokinetic parameters reported for healthy adult subjects after single subcutaneous injection.
