What is Novolin 70/30?
Novolin 70/30 is an insulin injection containing 70% intermediate-acting (delayed-release) human insulin and 30% short-acting (immediate-release) human insulin. It is supplied in a pre-filled syringe containing 100 units of insulin per milliliter.
Novolin 70/30 is prescribed to patients with type 1 or Type 2 diabetes who require insulin injections. Insulin is produced by the body to process simple sugar (glucose) in the bloodstream. If the body does not produce insulin (Type 1 diabetes) or becomes insensitive to insulin (Type 2 diabetes), insulin injections may become necessary to prevent damage caused by high blood sugar.
The insulin in Novolin 70/30 is human insulin created by inserting human insulin genes (DNA) into bacteria. Novolin 70/30 is 70% NPH insulin – or isophane insulin – which is formulated to begin releasing into the body about 90 minutes after injection and continue to be released for about 24 hours. 30% of Novolin 70/30 is immediate-release insulin which begins to act in the body 30 minutes after injection and lasts about 2 to 3 hours.
What are the side effects of Novolin 70/30?
The most common side effects are site reactions to the injection, such as soreness, redness, itchiness, and swelling.

Allergic reactions to insulin are very rare but could be severe, such as anaphylactic shock (dangerously low blood pressure) or severe skin reactions that may require hospitalization. If you see any signs of an allergic reaction, such as skin rash, shortness of breath, facial swelling, sweating, or fast heartbeat, get emergency medical help immediately.
