What is it—and why does it matter?
In this source, Lyumjev is identified as an ultrarapid formulation of insulin lispro (a rapid-acting insulin analog). The primary pharmacologic mechanism of insulin (including insulin lispro–containing formulations) is regulation of glucose metabolism via increased peripheral glucose uptake and reduced hepatic glucose output, with additional effects on lipid and protein metabolism. In adults with type 1 diabetes performing exercise under CSII with a 100% BRR, URLi produced a smaller mean glucose decrease during exercise than insulin lispro. Hypoglycemia is identified as the most frequent adverse reaction for insulin therapies, including insulin lispro (HUMALOG).

What is it?
A molecule, not a product name.
Identity
Insulin lispro is a recombinant rapid-acting insulin analog (E. coli expression) with reversed B28/B29 residues versus human insulin (Lys at B28 and Pro at B29), with empirical formula C257H383N65O77S6 and molecular weight 5.808 kDa.

“Insulin lispro is a rapid-acting insulin analog produced by recombinant DNA technology utilizing a non-pathogenic laboratory strain ofEscherichia coli. Insulin lispro differs from human insulin in that the amino acid proline at position B28 is replaced by lysine and the lysine in position B29 is replaced by proline. Chemically, it is Lys(B28), Pro(B29) human insulin analog and has the empirical formula C257H383N65O77S6and a molecular weight of 5.808 kDa, both identical to that of human insulin.”

How does it work?
Target, response, and disposition.
Mechanism
Insulin promotes intracellular potassium uptake; accordingly, the insulin lispro–containing Mix75/25 can shift potassium from extracellular to intracellular compartments, which may result in hypokalemia.
