Insulin is a medicine that lowers blood glucose (sugar). There are several types of insulin. Each type of insulin has a certain time period in which it works. In order to understand insulin action, it is helpful to know the onset, peak and duration of the insulin you take.1  Onset refers to when the insulin starts to work.2  Peak refers to when the insulin works hardest.ach type of insulin has a certain time period in which it works. In order to understand insulin action, it is helpful to know the onset, peak and duration of the insulin you take. 1  Onset refers to when the insulin starts to work. 2  Peak refers to when the insulin works hardest.
There is not a precise correlation between the peak blood level of insulin and the glucose level as the decline in glucose associated with peak insulin effect is somewhat delayed meaning that it takes time for the the insulin to work.t means when the insulin is having its strongest effect. When this occurs will be dependent on what type of insulin it is. Your blood sugar should be neither highest or lowest, but within the target range â assuming you're doing it right that is.
