Fiasp is a prescription medication used to treat type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Fiasp is a fast-acting insulin. It is usually given with long-acting insulin that provides a steady amount of insulin in the body to control blood glucose (sugar) levels. Insulin works by decreasing sugar in the blood and stopping the body from making more sugar.

This medication comes in an injectable form available in vials and prefilled pens. Fiasp should be injected just under the skin at the start of a meal or within 20 minutes after starting a meal. This medication is also available in an injectable form to be given directly into a vein (IV) by a healthcare professional.

Common side effects of Fiasp include low blood sugar, a reaction at the injection site, and weight gain. Fiasp can also cause blurred vision and dizziness. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery until you know how Fiasp affects you.
