The terms used to identify they demonstrate the characteristic of these two types of diabetes. Insulin concentrations have different appearances which allow the patient to choose which one to use.

The two strengths are conventional and NPH insulin. NPH insulin, or Insulin isophane suspension, are forms of insulin which can extend the delivery for a longer time as opposed to the regular ones. The standard insulin, or insulin injection regular, is described to be a drug with short-acting effects. Regular insulin looks clear. NPH is represented to possess a cloudy appearance.
