Humalog (insulin lispro) is typically administered subcutaneously, but it can be given intramuscularly (IM) in certain emergency situations, though this is not common practice. Lantus (insulin glargine) is specifically designed for subcutaneous use and should not be administered IM, as this can lead to unpredictable absorption and potentially dangerous fluctuations in blood sugar levels. Always follow a healthcare provider's guidelines for insulin administration.
