NCLEX-RN Complete Prep Course — Lesson 67: Diabetes Medications: Insulin Types, Onset and Peak, Mixing, Hypoglycemia, and Oral Agents

Sarah Mitchell builds the insulin table from rapid-acting lispro to peakless glargine, with the onset, peak, and feeding rule for each, then covers clear-before-cloudy mixing, site rotation, and storage. She walks through the rule of 15 for hypoglycemia, glucagon and dextrose for the unresponsive patient, sick-day rules, and the signature warning for metformin, sulfonylureas, SGLT2 inhibitors, GLP-1 agonists, and thiazolidinediones, with scenarios on a missed breakfast and metformin before contrast.
