Fda approval date of humulin?

When was Humulin approved by the FDA?

Humulin (insulin human) was first FDA-approved on March 2, 1982.[1]

Which Humulin product is this for?

“Humulin” refers to insulin human products marketed by Eli Lilly under that brand name. FDA approval dates can vary by specific formulation (for example, different “Humulin” types such as Regular vs. NPH vs. other insulin products), but the original brand approval date for Humulin as insulin human is March 2, 1982.[1]

Why might you see different dates online?

Different sources may list different dates depending on whether they mean:
- the initial FDA approval of the original Humulin brand/formulation, or
- later approvals for specific variants, labeling updates, or manufacturing changes.

If you tell me which exact Humulin product name you mean (for example, “Humulin R,” “Humulin N,” etc.), I can help pinpoint the matching FDA approval date using the same reference.
