Human Insulin, is a replica of the insulin found naturally in human beings. These are synthetically prepared. An insulin analogue however is an altered form of this human insulin, by addition,subsitution or substraction of one/or more amino acid chain/s. This is done to make insulin more safe and effective for human use.
