Definition
ROSA (rapid onset short acting) insulins
Term
NPH and regular+NPH
Definition
Intermediate acting insulins (NPH = neutral protamine Hagedorn or isophane insulin, NPH has a longer onset)
Term
Lente, ultralente, glargine, determir

Point drop per unit of Lispro or Aspart = 1800/total daily dose. Multiple answer by number of units to get desired drop. (Works when basal insulin is 50% of TDD. Change to 1500 when using regular insulin)
