Common Dosages

  • Pre-filled pen: Usually contains 100 units/mL of insulin aspart.

Typical Dosing

  • Insulin Aspart is usually administered subcutaneously within 15 minutes before meals or immediately after starting a meal. The specific dosage will depend on the individual’s blood glucose levels, insulin sensitivity, and dietary intake.
  • The total daily dose is individualized and may range widely depending on the patient's needs.

FDA Approved Indications

  • Management of diabetes mellitus in adults and children, specifically for controlling blood glucose levels during meals.
