1 ml of solution contains 100 IU of human insulin.

 

Release form:

Solution for injection 3 ml in a cartridge - 5 cartridges in a blister and in a cardboard box.

 

Pharmachologic effect:

DNA recombinant human insulin. It is a short-acting insulin preparation.

The main action of the drug is the regulation of glucose metabolism. In addition, it has an anabolic effect. In muscle and other tissues (with the exception of the brain), insulin causes rapid intracellular transport of glucose and amino acids, accelerates protein anabolism. Insulin promotes the conversion of glucose to glycogen in the liver, inhibits gluconeogenesis, and stimulates the conversion of excess glucose to fat.

 

Indication for use:

diabetes mellitus in the presence of indications for insulin therapy;
newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus;
pregnancy with type 2 diabetes mellitus (non-insulin dependent).
Method of administration and dosage:
The dose is determined by the doctor individually, depending on the level of glycemia.

The drug should be administered subcutaneously, intravenously, possibly intramuscularly.

S / C the drug is injected into the shoulder, thigh, buttocks or abdomen. The injection site must be alternated so that the same site is used no more than about 1 time / month.

Special instructions:

The transfer of a patient to another type of insulin or to an insulin preparation with a different trade name should be carried out under strict medical supervision. Changes in insulin activity, type (eg, M3, NPH), species (porcine, human insulin, human insulin analog) or production method (DNA recombinant insulin or animal insulin) may necessitate dose adjustments.

The need for dose adjustment may be required as early as the first administration of a human insulin preparation after an animal insulin preparation, or gradually over several weeks or months after transfer.

Influence on the ability to drive vehicles and control mechanisms: during hypoglycemia, the patient's ability to concentrate may deteriorate and the speed of psychomotor reactions may decrease. This can be dangerous in situations in which these abilities are especially needed (driving a car or operating machinery). Patients should be advised to take precautions to avoid hypoglycemia while driving. This is especially important for patients with mild or absent symptoms that predict hypoglycemia or with frequent hypoglycemia. In such cases, the physician should assess the appropriateness of the patient's driving.
