It also stops the liver from producing more sugar. After the injection of Humalog into the subcutaneous tissue (upper layer of skin) it has a rapid onset of action (approximately 15 minutes), thus making it possible to be taken closer to a meal (within zero to 15 minutes of the meal). Humalog takes effect rapidly and has a shorter duration of activity (2 to 5 hours) when compared to soluble insulin
