Lupisulin R 100IU/ml Cartridge

Product Description
Lupisulin R 100IU/ml Cartridge contains regular human insulin, a short-acting form of insulin. It is used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus to help control blood sugar levels. This insulin starts working quickly after injection and is usually taken before meals to manage post-meal sugar spikes. It helps the body use sugar effectively and prevents complications linked to long-term high blood sugar.

Benefits
• Provides quick control of blood sugar levels after meals
• Helps prevent diabetes-related complications such as nerve, kidney, and eye problems
• Can be used in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes as prescribed
• Works well in combination with intermediate or long-acting insulin if required
• Improves overall energy levels and sugar control when used regularly

Side Effects
• Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) with signs like sweating, shakiness, or hunger
• Pain, redness, or irritation at the injection site
• Weight gain in some patients during long-term use
• Rare allergic reactions such as rash, itching, or difficulty breathing
• Skin thickening or thinning at repeated injection sites (lipodystrophy)

How to Use
• Always use as directed by your doctor
• Inject under the skin (subcutaneous route), usually 30 minutes before meals
• Rotate injection sites such as abdomen, thigh, or upper arm to avoid skin issues

• Store in a refrigerator but do not freeze; once in use, it can be kept at room temperature for a limited period as per instructions

What to Avoid
• Avoid skipping meals after taking the injection to prevent hypoglycemia
