Can you explain what Novolin R is and how it works?
Novolin R is a short-acting, human insulin (regular insulin) used to control high blood sugar in people with diabetes. It is a manufactured form of the natural hormone that helps glucose enter cells to be used for energy. The medication typically starts working within 30 minutes of injection, peaks in effect between 2 to 3 hours, and can last for up to 8 hours. It is often used alongside a longer-acting insulin or other diabetes medications. Using Novolin R as prescribed, along with diet and exercise, helps manage blood sugar, which is crucial for reducing the risk of serious diabetes-related complications affecting the kidneys, eyes, nerves, and heart.
