Insulin is a hormone that regulates blood sugar levels, widely used in the treatment of diabetes to maintain glucose control and prevent complications.

Overview
Insulin is a naturally occurring hormone produced by the pancreas that allows cells to absorb and use glucose for energy. In individuals with diabetes, either the body doesn’t produce enough insulin (Type 1) or cannot use it effectively (Type 2), leading to high blood sugar levels.
Medical insulin is administered via injection to manage blood glucose levels in diabetic patients. It comes in various forms such as rapid-acting, short-acting, intermediate-acting, and long-acting, each designed to mimic the body’s natural insulin pattern.
Research
Research over the years has led to the development of advanced insulin formulations, including insulin analogs that offer more predictable absorption and longer duration. These improvements help patients achieve better glycemic control with fewer episodes of hypoglycemia.
Ongoing studies are exploring smart insulin systems, implantable insulin pumps, and even oral insulin delivery. Innovations in biotechnology continue to make insulin therapy more effective, user-friendly, and adaptable to individual needs.
