Insulin Treatment

Insulin treatment is availed by people with diabetes who suffer from lack of insulin in the body leading to abnormal blood sugar levels. Intermediate acting insulin takes a time period of two to four hours to work and its effect can last up to 18 hours in the body. Low blood sugar levels, weight gain and scars at the injection sites are some of the side effects of insulin treatment.
