Erly 6 mg/ml PFP Cartridge 3 ml treats type 2 diabetes mellitus and contains ‘Liraglutide’. It is a recombinant DNA (rDNA) that mimics the action of a natural hormone called Incretin (metabolic hormone, which stimulates a decrease in blood glucose levels). It works by increasing insulin release from the pancreas during high blood sugar levels (after meal) and decreases the amount of sugar the liver makes. Erly 6 mg/ml PFP Cartridge 3 ml may be advised with or without other medications along with diet and exercise to control blood sugar levels. 

Brief your medical history if you have any heart, kidney or liver diseases, pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas), stomach disorders like gastroparesis (delayed gastric emptying), high cholesterol levels, gallbladder problems, and depression before starting Erly 6 mg/ml PFP Cartridge 3 ml. Erly 6 mg/ml PFP Cartridge 3 ml is contraindicated in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (tumours in thyroid and parathyroid glands) and personal or family history of thyroid cancer. Do not concurrently use Erly 6 mg/ml PFP Cartridge 3 ml with prandial insulin (mealtime insulin). If you are also using insulin, take Erly 6 mg/ml PFP Cartridge 3 ml and insulin injections separately. Please do not mix them.

Do not share an injection pen, cartridge, or syringe with another person, even if the needle is changed. It is advised to limit your alcohol intake while using Erly 6 mg/ml PFP Cartridge 3 ml to avoid low blood sugar levels further. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before starting this medication. Erly 6 mg/ml PFP Cartridge 3 ml is advised to be only used in children above ten years of age and adults. 

• Maintain a fibre-rich diet and include healthy carbohydrates from fruits, vegetables and whole grains to maintain your blood glucose levels.
• Eat at regular intervals.

• Never reuse insulin needles and never share needles or insulin pens. 

Diabetes mellitus: Also known as adult-onset diabetes, is a metabolic disease that causes high blood sugar levels. It is a type 2 diabetes and occurs when the insulin (a hormone produced by the beta cells of the pancreas) is resistant in breaking the glucose to produce energy (insulin resistance) or the pancreas (an organ behind the stomach) produce little or no insulin at all. This disease mostly occurs in people aged above 40 years, but can also occur in childhood based on the risk factors. The treatment includes oral glucose-lowering medicines and insulin shots.
