I et forsøg på patienter med type 1 diabetes mellitus var Tmax 55 minutter og Cmax 82 ± 1, 3 µE / ml for insulin glulisin sammenlignet med en Tmax på 82 minutter og en Cmax på 46 ± 1, 3 µE / ml for regular humant insulin efter subkutan administration af 0, 15 E/ kg.
In a study in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus after subcutaneous administration of 0.15 U/ kg, for insulin glulisine the Tmax was 55 minutes and Cmax was 82 ± 1.3 µU/ ml compared to a Tmax of 82 minutes and a Cmax of 46 ± 1.3 µU/ ml for regular human insulin.
