Diabetes mellitus (Type 1 and Type 2) requiring insulin therapy; control of blood glucose levels
How Wosulin 30/70 40IU Works
Biphasic human insulin provides a quick onset from soluble insulin and a longer, intermediate effect from NPH insulin. It replaces/augments endogenous insulin to increase peripheral glucose uptake and reduce hepatic glucose production, thereby lowering blood sugar.
