Improved postprandial glycemic control with biphasic insulin aspart relative to biphasic insulin lispro and biphasic human insulin in patients with type 2 diabetes. The development of insulin analogs, biphasic insulin analogs, and more convenient insulin delivery systems may make insulin therapy more manageable and help more patients achieve their treatment goals. Premixes, such as biphasic insulin aspart 30, comprise a soluble, rapid-acting portion of insulin, which acts to cover meal-time glucose excursions, and a longer-acting insulin, usually in the form of protaminated analog in these formulations, which means it is released slowly and can therefore cover basal insulin needs. |
