I am on Humalog and I have a friend at work who is on Novolog. We tried an experiment. Our readings were within 10 points of each other, we have the same ratios, and we ate the same lunch. Her Novolog kicked in quicker than my Humalog and caused her to go low. So IMHO, that shows me that Novolog may have a quicker reaction time. BTW, I had the lower reading at the start. Go figure !!
