How to Administer Insulin

People with diabetes cannot use food for energy the usual way because they do not have insulin, or insulin does not do its job correctly in their bodies. Insulin is a hormone made in the pancreas, which is an organ located behind the stomach. Insulin lowers blood glucose levels. People with diabetes may inject insulin with a syringe two or more times each day, usually before a meal or at bedtime.
