What is Insulin?

In short, insulin is a hormone that is naturally-occuring in the body. Insulin is produced in the pancreas, and diabetes occurs when the body halts production of insulin or begins to not process it correctly. The body uses this hormone to derive energy from food in the form of glucose. The introduction of insulin from an outside source is needed when insulin no longer allows the cells to use sugar for energy.

Different Types of Humulin

Humulin is a synthetic type of insulin modeled after the natural human hormone of the same name. Humulin comes in different doses and strengths, ranging from short-acting, intermediate-acting, and short/intermediate-acting insulins. To know which type of insulin is right for you, contact your doctor and schedule an appointment. If your insulin needs begin to change, contact your doctor immediately. We can help cover the costs of the prescription if you are uninsured or under-insured.

Humulin R U-100: this is a short-acting insulin. This can help cover your insulin needs for food consumed within 30 minutes. This is injected under the skin, not under the muscle.

Humulin N: used between meals and to help cover increases in blood sugar during the night. This is an intermediate-acting insulin and is available in a pen or a U-100 vial. This is injected under the skin, not the muscle.

Humulin 70/30: this covers short and intermediate actions of insulin. Injected under the skin, Humulin 70/30 can be taken during the day, at night, and in-between meals.

Humulin R U-500: this is a more concentrated version of the Humulin R U-100. This particular form of Humulin is used control high blood sugar in patients that need more than 200 units of insulin a day.
