Sep 16, 2019 · In addition to increasing insulin release, it also: Slows gastric emptying (i.e. how quickly food passes from the stomach to the intestines, decreasing blood sugar spikes) Decreases the release of glucagon (a hormone that stimulates the production of glucose) Increases insulin synthesis; Increases beta-cell reproduction (beta cells release insulin)

Apr 25, 2018 · It's tough to say exactly how accidentally giving extra doses of Levemir, a long acting insulin, instead of a short acting insulin will effect long term glucose numbers. Most likely, postprandial (i.e. after a meal) glucose numbers will increase since Levermir is …

Apr 9, 2018 · Admelog (Insulin Lispro) and Humalog (Insulin Lispro) are both rapid acting insulin analogs used in the treatment of Type 1 and 2 diabetes.
