Question from Ljubljana, Slovenia, Europe:

I can not find any information on Internet about NovoRapid (duration of action, chemical structure, pharmacokinetics). Can you help me?

Answer:

From: DTeam Staff

The new rapid-acting insulin analog, insulin aspart, carries the brand name Novolog in the USA, NovoRapid in Europe, and should be available in the autumn [of 2000] in the USA. Its pharmokinetics are similar to those of Humalog. See insulin aspart for some additional information.
