What is Novolin R and how is it used?
Novolin R is a short-acting, man-made (recombinant) human insulin used to control high blood sugar in people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. It mimics the function of natural insulin, helping glucose enter cells for energy. Its activity profile is characterized by an onset of action within about 30 minutes of injection, a peak effect in 2 to 3 hours, and a duration of up to 8 hours. It is often used in combination with a longer-acting insulin or other diabetes medications. Effective management of diabetes with Novolin R, alongside diet and exercise, helps reduce the risk of serious long-term complications such as nerve damage, kidney disease, vision problems, and cardiovascular events.
