Insulin
Living with diabetes often means learning how insulin works, which type is right for you, and how to use it safely. At Titan Pharma X, we provide trusted insulin options, including Novorapid (3ml) and Lantus (3ml), ensuring patients and healthcare providers have access to reliable treatment solutions.
What are the 3 types of insulin?
Insulin is broadly grouped into three main types, based on how quickly they start working and how long they last:
- Rapid-acting insulin: Starts working within minutes and is taken around mealtimes.
- Example: Novorapid (3ml), available from Titan Pharma X, helps manage blood sugar spikes after eating.
- Long-acting insulin: Provides a steady release throughout the day or night, reducing the need for multiple injections.
- Example: Lantus (3ml), supplied by Titan Pharma X, offers consistent blood sugar control for up to 24 hours.
- Intermediate-acting insulin: Works for several hours but is less commonly prescribed today, often being replaced by long-acting alternatives.
Your healthcare professional will determine which type or combination of insulin is most appropriate for your needs.
Is insulin safe during pregnancy?
Many women with diabetes continue to require insulin during pregnancy. In fact, insulin is often considered the safest option for managing blood sugar in expectant mothers, since oral diabetes medicines may not always be recommended. That said, the type and dosage must be carefully adjusted by a healthcare team.
If you are pregnant or planning to conceive, never change your insulin routine without speaking to your doctor. They will guide you on how to use products such as Novorapid or Lantus safely.
