For example, fast- or rapid-acting insulins, such as lispro (Humalog), glulisine (Apidra), and aspart (Novolog, Fiasp), are meant to be taken 10 to 15 minutes before eating. The new fast-acting insulin Fiasp is taken right at the start of a meal or within 20 minutes of starting a meal.

Types: Insulin glulisine (Apidra), insulin lispro (Humalog), and insulin aspart (NovoLog) Regular or Short-acting insulin usually reaches the bloodstream within 30 minutes after injection, peaks anywhere from 2 to 3 hours after injection, and is effective for approximately 3 to 6 hours.

12 units of Apidra and 12 units of insuline in the night
