Lupisulin R 100 IU Injection works by ensuring rapid and consistent sugar control. Lupisulin R 100 IU Injection is a fast-acting form of insulin that helps lower blood sugar levels after food intake. Prevents the risk of having severe complications of diabetes. It stimulates the recovery of sugar in muscle and fat cells and thus suppresses sugar production in the liver. Lupisulin R 100 IU Injection helps in improving the glycaemic control, which in turn decreases the risk of progression of complications of diabetes like damage to the retina (retinopathy), damage to the kidney (nephropathy), damage to nerve cells (neuropathy), delayed wound healing, diabetic foot ulcer and others. Besides this, Lupisulin R 100 IU Injection can be safely prescribed to the diabetic mother in the pregnancy and the lactation stage.
