Answer to Question 1

2
Lispro (Humalog) is classified as an ultra-short-acting insulin that peaks in 30 to 90 minutes after subcutaneous injection. Regular is a short-acting insulin that peaks in 2 to 4 hours. NPH peaks in 4 to 12 hours. Glargine takes effect in 2 to 4 hours and has no peak.

Answer to Question 2

4
One of the causes of pyelonephritis is urinary retention. Causes of urinary retention are prostate gland hypertrophy, masses, urinary calculi, or ureteral obstruction. Orthostatic hypotension does not cause pyelonephritis.
