Mechanism of action: |
Insulin and its analogues lower blood glucose levels by stimulating peripheral glucose uptake and by preventing hepatic glucose production. Compared to endogenous insulin, Insulin Degludec has an added hexadecanedioic acid to lysine at the B29 position which allows for the formation of multi-hexamers in subcutaneous tissues. When injected subcutaneously, these multi-hexamers form a drug depot store that slowly release. As a result, Insulin Degludec has a protracted time action profile due to the delayed absorption from subcutaneous tissue depots into the systemic circulation |
