Types of insulin
Novo Nordisk uses recombinant DNA technology to make innovative products for people with diabetes. We first marketed insulin for commercial use in 1923, and today we offer a comprehensive line of human insulin and insulin analog products.
Novo Nordisk offers three different types of insulin designed to meet the needs of people with diabetes:
- Long-acting: Levemir® insulin is a long-acting insulin that provides up to 24 hours of blood sugar control. Click here for Prescribing Information
