"Soon, having the production line of Novorapid insulin completed and launched in the country, Iran can stop imports and start exports of the product," he tweeted.
As he added, Iran spends a huge volume of forex, the biggest among other medical requirements, on imports of Novorapid insulin.
The active ingredient in Novorapid is insulin. When Novorapid is injected, it is extremely fast-acting and works rapidly to normalize blood sugar levels. It typically begins working after 10-20 minutes and will last for between 3 and 5 hours.
