Huminsulin R 40IU/ml Solution for Injection

Description

Product Description
Huminsulin R 40 IU/ml Solution for Injection is a short-acting form of human insulin used in the management of diabetes mellitus. It works by replacing the insulin that the body cannot produce enough of, helping to move sugar from the blood into the body’s tissues for energy. It starts acting quickly after injection and is mainly used to control the rise in blood sugar that happens after meals.

Benefits
This insulin helps maintain healthier blood sugar levels and reduces the risk of long-term complications such as nerve weakness, kidney problems, eye damage, and heart disease. It provides effective control of post-meal glucose spikes and, when used as part of a proper diabetes management plan, improves overall wellbeing and energy levels.

Possible Side Effects
The most common reaction is low blood sugar, which may cause sweating, shakiness, hunger, dizziness, blurred vision, or headache. Redness, swelling, or pain at the injection site may also occur. Rarely, allergic reactions, rapid heartbeat, or sudden weight changes may appear. Severe or persistent effects require prompt medical attention.

How to Use
This insulin is injected under the skin as advised by a healthcare professional. It should not be administered into a vein or muscle unless specifically instructed. The injection site should be rotated regularly to avoid skin thickening or irritation. It is usually taken shortly before meals or as directed by the doctor. Blood sugar levels should be checked frequently to ensure proper dosing.

What to Avoid
Meals should not be skipped or delayed after taking the injection, as this can cause a sudden drop in blood sugar. Alcohol consumption should be minimized since it may increase the risk of hypoglycemia. The insulin should not be used if the solution is cloudy, discolored, frozen, or contains particles.

Precautions
People with liver or kidney problems, adrenal or pituitary disorders, or a history of frequent low blood sugar should inform their doctor before starting this insulin. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should use it only under medical supervision. Dose adjustments may be needed during illness, stress, or major lifestyle changes. Carrying a quick source of sugar such as glucose tablets or candy is advised in case of sudden hypoglycemia.
