the nurse administers a combination of regular insulin and nph insulin subcutaneously to a client at 0800. at which time should
natka813 [3]

NPH, an intermediate-acting insulin, peaks in 4 to 10 hours while regular insulin, a short-acting insulin, peaks in 2 to 3 hours. The most likely time for hypoglycemia to happen is between 9 and 5 p.m. (0900 to 1700 hours).

Blood sugar (glucose) levels that are below the normal range are known as hypoglycemia.

Diabetes medication frequently has an impact on hypoglycemia. But even in those without diabetes, other medications and a wide range of, sometimes undiagnosed diseases can result in low blood sugar.

Treatment must start right away for hypoglycemia. A fasting blood sugar of 70 mg/dL, or 3.9 mmol/L, or less should be regarded for many people as a warning sign of hypoglycemia. Nevertheless, your figures may vary. Request information from your doctor.

With the aid of a high-sugar food or beverage or by taking medicine, you must swiftly bring your blood sugar levels back into the normal range. Finding and addressing the source of hypoglycemia is necessary for long-term therapy.
