What is the half life of injected insulin
What is the half life of injected insulin
There is not one answer for this because different formulations of
insulin will reach peak levels at different times and the length of
time that insulin stays active will vary because of anti-bodies to
inusulin as well as metabolic factors. Having said that human
insulin takes about an hour to peak and then is about half that
peak within 5 hours. see
