Menthol refers to menthol insulin, and the difference between glycemic insulin and menthol insulin is mainly reflected in the mode of administration and time of action.
1. Dosage: Glycine insulin should be used by clinicians to determine the therapeutic dosage of insulin according to the actual demand of patients. This product has a long-acting effect and should be administered by subcutaneous injection at a fixed time once a day. In contrast, meningococcal insulin should generally be used in combination with at least once-daily intermediate-acting insulin or long-acting insulin.
2. Duration of action: Glycine insulin has an onset of action within 6 hours after injection, with no significant peak and a duration of 36 hours. Serum insulin concentration can reach steady state 2-4 days after the 1st injection. In contrast, menopausal insulin is rapidly absorbed in about 15 minutes after injection, with a peak at 1-3 hours and a duration of action of about 3-5 hours.
Glycine insulin and Mentholatum insulin are both prescription drugs and must be used under the guidance of a doctor, without authorization or change in dosage.
