Just wondering if there are any faster acting alternatives to Novorapid available? Years ago, I used to take Actrapid which usually started acting within 30 mins, but with Novorapid, Im lucky if its 3 hours! Admittedly I am rather insulin resistant, but I am taking metformin to supposedly counter this.

Hi @Grumpy Octopus , welcome to the forum.

Both Fiasp and Lyumjev act quicker for most than Novorapid.
