This insulin pen contains a mealtime insulin utilized to curb post-prandial blood sugar spikes experienced by diabetic patients dependent on insulin therapy. This insulin is used together with a long-acting insulin as part of a complete insulin treatment regimen. Fiasp should be administered right before a meal or within 20 minutes of starting a meal.
This insulin is a fast-acting formulation that begins working much faster than normal insulin. Injecting insulin with a pen provides more accurate dosing and reduces injection pain, and the Flextouch out-performs similar drug delivery systems like the KwikPen and the Solostar.
