2.
QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION
Insulin aspart is a rapid-acting analogue of human insulin that
rapidly lowers blood glucose. Insulin
aspart is homologous with human insulin with the exception of a
substitution of the amino acid proline
by aspartic acid at position 28 on the B-chain. The unique structure
of insulin aspart increases the rate
of absorption from a subcutaneous injection site, giving a faster
onset of action, an earlier peak effect
and a shorter duration of action than soluble human insulin. Insulin
aspart should be given immediately
before a meal or, when necessary, after the start of a meal.
Insulin aspart is produced by recombinant DNA technology using
Saccharomyces cerevisiae. One unit
of insulin aspart corresponds to 6 nmol, 0.035 mg salt-free anhydrous
insulin aspart.

PHARMACEUTICAL FORM

of insulin aspart (B28 Asp) 100
U/mL. NovoRapid is a solution for injection.
