Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 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 Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 3 ml is insulin glulisine. Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 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 Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 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 Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 3 ml should normally be taken in combination with intermediate-acting or long-acting insulin preparations. Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 3 ml works by ensuring rapid and consistent sugar control. Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 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 Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 3 ml. It should be administered at least 0-15 minutes before or soon after meals. The common side effects of Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 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 Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 3 ml do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 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. It stimulates the recovery of sugar in muscle and fat cells and thus suppresses sugar production in the liver. Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 3 ml helps in improving the glycaemic control, which in turn decreases the risk of progression of complications of diabetes like damage of the retina (retinopathy), damage of kidney (nephropathy), damage of nerve cells (neuropathy), delayed wound healing, diabetic foot ulcer and others. Besides this, Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 3 ml can be safely prescribed to the diabetic mother during pregnancy and lactation.
Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 3 ml is for subcutaneous (under the skin) in the abdominal wall, thigh, or upper arm. It can also be administered intravenously (IV) only with 0.9% saline solution infusion. If you are changing the brand of insulin or if you need to inject your insulin by another method, it should be done under strict medical supervision. Cases of heart failure were reported when pioglitazone was used with insulin, especially in patients at high risk of cardiac heart failure. The first symptoms of hyperglycaemia (high blood sugar level) may include symptoms like excessive thirst, dry mouth, increased frequency of urination, nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, flushed dry skin, loss of appetite and acetone odour of the breath. You should closely monitor these symptoms. If you have had any heart attack or have weight gain and oedema (fluid deposition in tissue), let your doctor know before taking Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 3 ml. It is advisable not to consume alcohol as it may either increase or decrease your blood glucose level. Care should be taken while travelling across more than two time zones. Your doctor may adjust your insulin schedule. Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 3 ml may decrease the level of potassium (hypokalemia) if left untreated, may lead to respiratory paralysis, irregular heartbeat rhythm, coma and even death. Do not take Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 3 ml if you have any low blood glucose levels, kidney, liver, or heart problems, or problems with alcohol or other prescription recreational drugs.

Drug-Disease Interactions: Apidra Solostar 100IU/ml Injection 3 ml should not be given to patients with kidney disease, liver disease, low blood sugar/glucose level (hypoglycaemia), and low potassium level (hypokalaemia).
Diabetes: Diabetes is a chronic or lifelong disease that prevents the body from utilizing insulin properly. Insulin is the hormone that controls sugar levels in the blood. Diabetes is a condition in which blood glucose levels are above normal. It is of two types, namely: type-1 and type-2 diabetes. Type-1 diabetes is a condition in which the pancreas produces little or no insulin. Type-2 diabetes affects the way the body processes sugar. Symptoms of diabetes include lack of energy, tiredness, frequent urination, excess thirst, dry mouth, blurry vision, constant hunger, weight loss, and itchy skin.
