analogue insulin

A term of art for a synthesised insulin in which insulin’s amino acid sequence is altered by genetic engineering to alter absorption, delivery (e.g., to reduce clumping) or provide another desired characteristic.

Examples
Humulin (rapid absorption), Glargine (constant release over 24 hours).

Results
Evidence-based assessment indicates that they are much more expensive and do not substantially improve outcomes.
