1The goal of all insulin treatment is to mimic the healthy pancreas’ way of secreting insulin to the blood stream.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
2Which of these is not a limitation of regular human insulin?
- ASlower onset of activity that requires injections to be given 30 to 45 minutes before meals
- BPatient inconvenience
- CSafety concerns if the meal is not eaten when scheduled
- DDifficult to culture and produce
3Insulins are first injected as hexamers, but become dimers and monomers which can enter the blood.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
4Insulins are categorized first by length of action.
1. Rapid-Fast acting Insulin: begins to work approximately [blank_start]15[blank_end] min after injection, peaks in about 1 hour, and continues to work for 2 to 4 hour.
This is usually taken directly prior to a [blank_start]meal[blank_end] and in addition to a [blank_start]long[blank_end]-acting insulin.
2. Short-Regular acting Insulin: reaches the bloodstream [blank_start]30[blank_end]min to an hour after injection, peaks anywhere from 2 to 3 hours after Injection, and is effective for approximately 6-8 hours.
It is usually given before a meal and in addition to a long-acting
insulin.
3. Intermediate acting Insulin: generally reaches the bloodstream about [blank_start]2 to 4[blank_end] hours after injection, peaks 4 to 8 hours later and is effective for about 12 to 18 hours.
It is usually taken [blank_start]twice[blank_end] a day and in addition to a [blank_start]rapid- or short[blank_end] acting insulin.
4. Long acting Insulin: starts working several hours after injection and works for approximately [blank_start]24[blank_end] hours.
If necessary, it is often used in combination with rapid- or short acting insulin.- A15
- Bmeal
- Clong
- D30
- E2 to 4
- Ftwice
- Grapid- or short
- H24
5Choose the incorrect statement.
- ABeing in a hot environment or having a temperature will increase the speed of insulin absorption.
- BAn abdominal injection will be absorbed slower than a thigh injection if both are subcut.
- CThe absorption from the buttocks is slower that the abdomen, but faster than the thigh, if all are subcut.
- DMassage of the injection site will increase the speed of insulin absorption.
- EA thicker layer of subcutaneous fat gives a slower absorption of insulin.
6Rapid insulins are lispro, aspart, and glulisine.
• Lispro - a human analogue which works [blank_start]more[blank_end] quickly than soluble human insulin because the insulin molecule has been changed slightly. Through [blank_start]recombinant[blank_end] DNA technology, the final lysine and proline residues on the C-terminal end of the [blank_start]B[blank_end]-chain are reversed. This modification does not alter receptor binding, but blocks the re-formation of insulin [blank_start]dimer and hexamers[blank_end]. It is sold under the brand name [blank_start]Humalog[blank_end].
• Aspart - a human analogue which also works [blank_start]faster[blank_end] than soluble human insulin because of a substitution which reduces the tendency of the
insulin to form [blank_start]hexamers[blank_end]. Sold under the brand name [blank_start]Novolog[blank_end].- Amore
- Brecombinant
- CB
- Ddimer and hexamers
- EHumalog
- Ffaster
- Ghexamers
- HNovolog
7Which of these is not a short acting regular human insulin brand?
- AActrapid
- BHumulin R
- CActshort
8Humulin N and Novolin N are the most common brands of NPH insulin, which is intermediate acting.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
9The delayed release of insulin from protamine complexes causes NPH insulin to last longer than soluble human insulin.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
10Insulin glargine, marketed under the brand name [blank_start]Lantus[blank_end], is a human insulin analogue. After injection, micro-[blank_start]crystals[blank_end] slowly release insulin for about 24
hours. It uses pH reactions to form micro-precipitates under the skin,
which create the time-release action.
Insulin glargine differs from human insulin by replacing asparagine with
[blank_start]glycine[blank_end] in position 21 of the [blank_start]A[blank_end]-chain, and by carboxy-terminal extension of
[blank_start]B[blank_end]-chain by 2 [blank_start]arginine[blank_end] residues. The arginine amino acids shift the isoelectric point from a pH of 5.4 to 6.7, making the molecule more soluble at an [blank_start]acidic[blank_end] pH and less soluble at [blank_start]physiological[blank_end] pH.
This allows for the subcutaneous injection of a [blank_start]clear[blank_end] solution with [blank_start]peakless[blank_end] dissolution and absorption for at least 24 hours.- ALantus

11Pre-mix insulin analogues mimic physiological insulin secretion.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
12Pre-mix insulin analogues are a mixture of short or fast acting insulin and long acting insulins.
