About Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml
Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml is rapid-acting insulin for the treatment of diabetes mellitus in both children (above six years of age) and adults. The active ingredient in Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml is insulin glulisine. Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml is a recombinant human insulin analogue that is equipotent to regular human insulin. Insulin glulisine has a more rapid onset of action and a shorter duration of action than regular human insulin. Diabetes is a lifelong condition that causes a person's blood sugar level to become too high.
Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml is a fast-acting insulin that works rapidly to normalise blood sugar levels after a meal. It typically begins working within 10-20 minutes after injection, peaks in about 1 hour, and keeps working for 2 to 4 hours. Due to this short action, Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml should normally be taken in combination with intermediate-acting or long-acting insulin preparations. Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml works by ensuring rapid and consistent sugar control. Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml 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.
The primary role of insulin and insulin analogues, including insulin glulisine, is glucose metabolism control. Insulin lowers blood glucose levels by stimulating peripheral glucose uptake, particularly skeletal muscle and fat, and inhibiting hepatic glucose production. Insulin glulisine takes effect about twice as fast as regular human insulin and completes the glucose-lowering effect about 2 hours earlier than regular human insulin.
Your doctor will advise you on how to use Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml. It should be administered at least 0-15 minutes before or soon after meals. The common side effects of Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml are hypokalaemia (low potassium), hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar level), local injection site reactions, lipodystrophy (fat deposition under the skin), rash, and pruritus (itch skin), which may occur at the injection site. Most of these side effects of Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.
Try not to stop taking Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml of your own. Let your doctor know about this, as it may cause withdrawal symptoms. Do not take Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml if you have any low blood glucose levels, kidney, liver, or heart problems, or problems with alcohol or other prescription recreational drugs. Along with Apidra 100IU Cartridge 3 ml, you should take a healthy diet, exercise regularly, and maintain weight as your doctor advises.

Insulin kept out of the refrigerator will not poison you or even make you sick. It just means that your insulin will not work as well or deliver its full potential dose. In simple terms, if your blood sugar is high, and you use the insulin that has been kept out, your blood sugar may not be lowered.
Insulin is released from the beta cells in your pancreas in response to the rise in glucose in your bloodstream. After you have consumed a meal, any carbohydrate you have eaten is broken down into glucose and transferred into the bloodstream. The pancreas detects this rise in blood glucose and starts to secrete insulin.
Habitual moderate coffee drinking has actually been associated with increased insulin sensitivity and lowered risk for type 2 diabetes. But in acute and high doses, caffeine can decrease insulin sensitivity and raise plasma insulin levels.
