USES
Insulin aspart is used in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise program to help persons with diabetes manage their blood sugar levels. High blood sugar control can help prevent kidney disease, blindness, nerve problems, limb loss, and sexual function issues. Diabetic control can also reduce your chances of having a heart attack or stroke. Insulin aspart is a synthetic insulin that resembles human insulin. It takes the place of the insulin that your body typically produces. Insulin aspart works more quickly and for a shorter period of time than ordinary insulin. It works by allowing blood sugar (glucose) to enter cells and be used for energy by your body. This medication is usually used with a medium- or long-acting insulin product.
