How WOSULIN 50/50 100IU INJ CAR Works
Biphasic insulin 50/50 contains short-acting soluble insulin for meal-time glucose control and intermediate-acting NPH insulin for basal control. It increases peripheral glucose uptake and reduces hepatic glucose production, thereby lowering blood sugar levels.
Dosage & Directions
For subcutaneous use only using the insulin cartridge in a compatible pen device as advised by the doctor. Usually taken 1–2 times daily, typically 30 minutes before meals. Roll/tilt gently to resuspend before use; rotate injection sites (abdomen, thigh, upper arm). Do not use if solution has clumps or does not become uniformly cloudy after mixing.
Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
