Insulin aspart is a rapid-acting insulin analog for subcutaneous or intravenous administration. Insulin aspart is homologous with regular human insulin with the exception of a single substitution of the amino acid proline by aspartic acid in position B28, and is produced by recombinant DNA technology utilizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae . Insulin aspart has the empirical formula C 256 H 381 N 65 0 79 S 6 and a molecular weight of 5825.8 daltons. FIASP (insulin aspart) injection is an aqueous, sterile, clear and colorless solution. Each mL contains 100 units of insulin aspart and the inactive ingredients: arginine (as L-arginine hydrochloride), USP (3.48 mg); dibasic sodium phosphate, USP (0.42 mg); glycerin, USP (3.3 mg); metacresol, USP (1.72 mg); niacinamide, USP (20.8 mg); phenol, USP (1.50 mg); zinc (as zinc acetate), USP (19.6 mcg) and Water for Injection. Hydrochloric acid and/or sodium hydroxide may be added to adjust pH to 7.1. Figure 1
