Across
- 2. Long‑acting insulin that suppresses hepatic glucose production between meals.
- 3. Rapid-acting insulin with lysine and proline amino acid substitutions.
- 5. Rapid‑acting insulin used for meals or corrections.
- 7. Bedtime‑to‑AM glucose difference used to detect over‑basalization.
- 8. Long‑acting insulin with no pronounced peak and a 24-hour duration.
- 11. Long‑acting insulin a 36‑hour duration.
- 13. Insulin with niacinamide to increase absorption rate.
- 14. Once‑weekly insulin with a 196‑hour duration.
- 16. Used to calculate insulin‑to‑carbohydrate ratio.
- 18. Amount of NPH insulin in a 70/30 premix insulin.
Down
- 1. Alternate name for insulin pump therapy.
- 4. Protein that is added to regular insulin to extend its duration of action.
- 6. Concentrated regular insulin used for extreme insulin resistance.
- 9. Used to calculate insulin sensitivity factor.
- 10. Time of maximal glucose‑lowering effect.
