About Lupisulin M 30 100IU/ml Injection 5 x 3 ml

Lupisulin M 30 100IU/ml Injection 5 x 3 ml is used for the treatment of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. In Diabetes Mellitus Type 1, the body does not make enough insulin to control blood sugar levels. In Diabetes Mellitus type 2, either the body stops producing enough insulin (the hormone which helps to decrease sugar levels in the blood) or there is resistance to the action of insulin. As a result, insulin is produced in large amounts, but it cannot act on the organs of the body.

Lupisulin M 30 100IU/ml Injection 5 x 3 ml is a combination of two drugs, namely: Insulin Human (a short-acting type of insulin) and Isophane Insulin (intermediate-acting). Lupisulin M 30 100IU/ml Injection 5 x 3 ml suppresses the production of sugar in the liver and facilitates the reuptake of sugar in the fat and muscle cells, thereby Lupisulin M 30 100IU/ml Injection 5 x 3 ml ensures rapid and consistent sugar control. 

You are advised to take Lupisulin M 30 100IU/ml Injection 5 x 3 ml for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical conditions.

However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Consult your doctor before taking Lupisulin M 30 100IU/ml Injection 5 x 3 ml if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Lupisulin M 30 100IU/ml Injection 5 x 3 ml may cause drowsiness, so drive with caution.
