Humalog Mix50 Cartridges (100 Units/mL)

Humalog Mix50 Cartridges can cause severe hypoglycemia, leading to seizures, unconsciousness, and death. Patients should be closely monitored for signs of hypoglycemia, and their insulin dosage should be carefully adjusted. The medication should only be used under the supervision of a healthcare provider.

Humalog Mix 50 100IU/ml Cartridge should be used with caution for kidney or liver disease patients.

It is safe for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Human studies have shown that it does not pass through breast milk significantly and is not harmful to the baby. Your doctor may modify women who are pregnant or breastfeeding dosages.

Humalog Mix50 Cartridges are typically considered safe during pregnancy. Studies on animals have shown little to no side effects to the developing baby; however, these studies were limited.

Do not drink excessive alcohol, as this can lead to a drop in blood sugar levels.

Do not share insulin with others as this can lead to blood pathogens and severe infections.

Unmanaged diabetes can lead to severe problems, including blindness, kidney failure, strokes, poor circulation, and nerve damage. With proper diabetes treatment, these issues can be reduced or prevented.

Do not operate heavy machinery or drive if your blood sugar levels are too high or too low.

Ensure you are pre-filling your pen with the right cartridge. Humalog comes in different forms (ie, Humalog Mix25 KwikPens) and it can be easily mistaken for another product.

The rapid onset of activity requires Humalog Mix50 to be taken 15 minutes before starting your meal or within 20 minutes of creating your meal. The time to take your insulin may vary for each individual. The injection would be similar to that of a syringe and vial technique.

Like any insulin, the duration of Humalog Mix50 can depend on the dose, site injection, temperature, blood supply, and physical activity.

It would be best if you did not stop taking this medication unless otherwise instructed by your doctor.

As with any insulin, you should monitor your blood sugar levels regularly using a glucose monitor. Please keep track of results and share them with your doctor.

For faster absorption, injected below the skin of the abdomen. Other injection sites include the upper arm, thighs, or buttocks. Do not massage the area after injection.

Rotate injection sites to avoid lumps or skin irritations. Do not inject into chunks. Consult your doctor if you are unsure about injection sites.

Do not change to another brand or type of insulin unless advised by your doctor, as a modification to dosages may be required.

Carry glucose tablets, candy, or a sugary drink if you experience hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) which can happen from skipping a meal, consuming alcohol, or taking other anti-diabetic medication.

Your diabetes treatment should also include a balanced diet, regular exercise, and taking medication as prescribed by your doctor.

The injection site should be rotated to prevent skin changes such as lumps under the skin. The insulin may not work very well if you inject it into a lumpy area. Contact your doctor if you are currently injecting into a lumpy area before injecting a different location. Your doctor may tell you to check your blood sugar more closely and adjust your insulin or other antidiabetic medication doses.

The most common side effect of this medication is low blood sugar levels, also known as hypoglycemia. It’s essential to inject the correct dosage, monitor blood sugar levels, and have regular meals to avoid this complication.

You may experience itching or a rash while taking it. An allergic reaction at the injection site includes swelling, redness, or hard lumps (lipodystrophy).

Most side effects do not require immediate medical attention and go away as the body adjusts to the medication; however, you should contact your doctor if issues persist.

Insulin requirements may increase if you take other drugs with hyperglycemic activity, such as oral contraceptives (for example, birth control pills, injections, and patches), corticosteroids, or thyroid replacement therapy.

Always discuss any medications you are taking with your doctor.

The use of thiazolidinediones (such as rosiglitazone and pioglitazone), alone or in combination with other antidiabetic agents (including insulin), has been associated with heart failure and swelling of the lower extremities. Be sure to get in touch with your physician immediately if you develop symptoms of shortness of breath, fatigue, exercise intolerance, or swelling of the lower extremities while you are on these agents.

Be sure to mention to your doctor of any drugs you are currently taking. This includes weight loss medications, such as Ozempic. It is essential your doctor knows all medications and supplements you are taking, as they would be able to properly prescribe you with the correct medication.

1. Missing or delaying meals

2. Taking too much insulin

3. Exercising or working more than usual

5. A change in the body’s need for insulin

6. Diseases of the adrenal, pituitary, or thyroid gland, or progression of kidney or liver disease

7. Interactions with other drugs that lower blood glucose, such as oral hypoglycemics, salicylates, sulfa antibiotics, and certain antidepressants

8. Consumption of alcoholic beverages
