What is INSUGEN 30/70 INITIATION KIT used for?
Treatment of diabetes mellitus (type 1 and type 2) to control blood glucose; used when a premixed insulin regimen is indicated
How INSUGEN 30/70 INITIATION KIT Works
This premixed human insulin provides both rapid and intermediate action. The soluble insulin component helps control post-meal glucose spikes, while the NPH (isophane) component provides longer basal control. Together they improve glucose uptake and reduce glucose production by the liver.
Dosage & Directions
For subcutaneous injection only using the supplied pen/cartridge system as advised by the doctor. Usually injected 15–30 minutes before meals; dose and frequency are individualized based on blood glucose. Roll/tilt gently to resuspend until uniformly cloudy (do not shake vigorously); rotate injection sites; monitor glucose regularly.
Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
