Description:
NPH insulin (Neutral Protamine Hagedorn), also known as intermediate-acting insulin, is used to manage blood sugar in people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. It begins working in 1–2 hours, reaches a peak effect around 4–12 hours, and lasts about 12–18 hours. Because of its peak action, it carries a higher risk of hypoglycemia, especially if meals are delayed. NPH is often used twice daily and may be combined with short-acting insulin in the same syringe. It appears cloudy due to the added protamine, which slows absorption.
