The risk of hypoglycemic reaction is greatest around the peak of insulin activity.

<h3>NPH insulin reaches its peak when?</h3>

NPH Insulin peak can result in nocturnal hypoglycemia since it happens around midnight, when the body doesn't need as much insulin. The NPH insulin can make you gain weight. Hypokalemia, peripheral edema, and lipodystrophy, which can cause skin shrinkage or hypertrophy, are additional side effects.

<h3>What function does combination insulin serve?</h3>

Combination therapy involving one to two daily insulin injections along with oral therapy is typically more effective than insulin monotherapy for achieving and maintaining glycemic control, according to analysis of comparative studies (13 in insulin-naive patients and 26 in patients who had previously received insulin treatment).
