Provide adequate basal levels
Achieve post-prandial peaks when needed 
Ensure certainty of results 
8. 7/30/2012 E-MAIL: bhartihospital@rediffmail.com 8 INSULIN ANALOGUES RAPID ACTING
Lispro =                 Lys(B28), Pro(B29) 
Aspart  = Pro?Asp(B28)
Glulisine =                Lys(B3), Glu(B29)
Rapid dissociation of hexamers 
Thyroxyl insulin =                B1-l-thyroxine BASAL
Glargine = Gly(A21),Arg(B31,B32); higher isoelectric point; precipitates in neutral SC tissue
Detemir =                     B29-fatty acid acylation, B30 removed; 98% albumin binding 
9. 7/30/2012 E-MAIL: bhartihospital@rediffmail.com 9 Short acting analogues Variability only 20  30 % [Heinemann, 2002]
Approved for IV use as well
Can be given pre- or post- meal
Dose adjustment can be done after meal/ CHO counting; to cover for incidental hyper/hypo
Can be mixed with NPH immediately prior to injection
Must not be mixed with glargine 
10. 7/30/2012 E-MAIL: bhartihospital@rediffmail.com 10 Advantages of RAA With lispro/ aspart, hypo may occur 90 mins after a meal, esp. with high fat, low CHO meal [Burge MR et al, 1997] rather than 2-3 hrs after the meal as with regular insulin
RAA safer with exercise [Bolli GB et al, 1999]
RAA use less snacks [Ronnemaa T et al, 1998]
May ameliorate immunologic insulin resistance                [ Kumar D, 1997]

26. 7/30/2012 E-MAIL: bhartihospital@rediffmail.com 26 RENAL FAILURE Due to insulin resistance, renal patients need higher dosage of regular insulin 
With increasing doses, duration of action of regular insulin increases. This increases the risk for late-postprandial hypoglycemia
     Nosek et al (2003):  Aspart unlike regular human insulin does not show a significant prolongation in its duration of action with higher doses.

28. 7/30/2012 E-MAIL: bhartihospital@rediffmail.com 28 RENAL FAILURE Aspart: rapid, shorter and predictable duration of action, leading to reduced frequency of hypoglycemic episodes. 
Lyness et al (2001):
Kinetics of Insulin Aspart were unaffected by renal impairment 
safety profile was comparable among persons with diabetes with various degrees of renal dysfunction.

35. 7/30/2012 E-MAIL: bhartihospital@rediffmail.com 35 ASPART IN INDOOR  Aspart  preferred for s.c. use in hospitalized patients: benefits 
Superior prandial control 
Maintains long-term glucose control 
Low risk of hypoglycemia 
Freedom from meal time constraints
Aspart IV: no switch in insulin formulation & therefore no loss of insulin
Patients with DKA : when antibodies are suspected to HI
Different receptor-binding characteristics : glucose-lowering response (pharmacodynamics) could be different

Aspart tds [average 24.1 U/d] + glimepiride [average 4.4 mg] at 8 pm achieved glycemic control in 56% patients without hypo or weight gain
Glimepiride increases  endogenous insulin portal circulation and suppresses HGO [de Boer  et al, 2004]
