How HUMALOG INSULIN LISPRO PENFILL 3 ML Works
- HUMALOG INSULIN LISPRO PENFILL 3 ML works by replacing the function of natural insulin, helping to transport glucose from the bloodstream into cells for energy production, thereby lowering blood sugar levels.
- HUMALOG INSULIN LISPRO PENFILL 3 ML is a rapid-acting insulin analog that shares a similar structure to human insulin. It works by binding to insulin receptors on the surface of cells throughout the body. This binding activates a signaling pathway that allows glucose transporters to move from inside the cell to the cell membrane. As a result, the glucose transporters on the cell membrane increase, facilitating the uptake of glucose from the bloodstream into the cells. Once inside the cells, glucose can be utilized for energy production or stored as glycogen. By enhancing glucose uptake, HUMALOG INSULIN LISPRO PENFILL 3 ML helps to lower blood sugar levels in individuals with diabetes.
