Composition of Basugine Pen

Uses of Basugine Pen

  • Type 1 diabetes
  • Type 2 diabetes

Benefits of Basugine Pen

In Type 1 diabetes
Basugine Pen replaces the insulin a type 1 pancreas no longer makes. It is what allows the body to use food for energy, and keeping sugar in range with it prevents both the immediate danger of very high sugar and the long-term damage to eyes, kidneys and nerves.
In Type 2 diabetes
Basugine Pen brings blood sugar down when tablets alone no longer keep it in range, protecting the eyes, kidneys, nerves and heart from the damage of long-standing high sugar.

How Basugine Pen works

Insulin Glargine replaces or supplements the insulin your body cannot make enough of, moving sugar out of the blood and into your cells.

How to take Basugine Pen

Use this medicine as your doctor has directed. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Contact your doctor or diabetes nurse for advice — do not take a double dose to make up for a missed injection.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause severe low blood sugar, leading to fits or unconsciousness — this is a medical emergency. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Basugine Pen

  • Pain

Warnings and precautions

If you feel shaky, sweaty, confused or unusually hungry, take sugar, glucose or a sweet drink at once and tell your doctor — these are signs your blood sugar has fallen too low. Never change your insulin brand, strength or type on your own — always through your doctor. Rotate the injection site each time, or fatty lumps will form and the insulin will be absorbed unpredictably. Do not use insulin that has changed colour, gone cloudy when it should be clear, or has clumps in it. Never share a pen or needle, even with a family member.

Do not take Basugine Pen if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not to be used during an episode of low blood sugar.

Interactions with other medicines

Beta blockers can mask the warning signs of low blood sugar. Steroids raise blood sugar and your insulin dose may need review.

How to store Basugine Pen

Keep unopened insulin in the refrigerator between 2°C and 8°C — never in the freezer, and never against the ice box. The pen or vial in use may be kept below 30°C, away from direct sunlight, for the period stated on the pack. Keep out of the reach of children.

Quick tips for Basugine Pen

  • Keep an unopened supply in the fridge and the pen in use at room temperature, away from direct sunlight.
  • Always carry a fast-acting sugar source.
  • Check your sugar as your doctor has instructed, and keep a record to take to appointments.

People taking Basugine Pen are often asked to check these from time to time. Your doctor decides which and how often.
