Mechanism of action
Insulin aspart is a genetically engineered insulin analog with a single amino acid substitution that allows faster absorption and onset of action compared to human insulin. It mimics the body's natural insulin response by binding to insulin receptors on muscle, fat, and liver cells, facilitating glucose transport into cells and promoting glycogen synthesis while inhibiting gluconeogenesis. This rapid action makes it suitable for mealtime glucose control in diabetes management.
