Description
HUMULIN 70/30 (70% N & 30% R) 100IU/ML 10ML VIAL X 1
Humulin 70/30 100IU/ml is a premixed human insulin designed to provide both short-acting and intermediate-acting blood sugar control in patients with diabetes mellitus. The formulation contains 70% NPH (intermediate-acting) insulin and 30% Regular (short-acting) insulin, offering both baseline and mealtime glucose management in one convenient vial.
How Humulin 70/30 Works
Humulin 70/30 replaces or supplements the insulin naturally produced by the body. The short-acting Regular component lowers blood sugar after meals, while the NPH component provides steady insulin throughout the day and night. This combination helps prevent hyperglycemia and supports better overall blood glucose management. The onset is typically 30 minutes, peaks in 2–12 hours, and can last up to 24 hours depending on individual response.
