INSULIN ASPART PROTAMINE is an intermediate-acting human insulin analogue used to lower blood glucose levels in people with diabetes mellitus. Diabetes occurs when the body does not produce enough insulin to control the level of blood sugar. Insulin is the hormone that controls sugar levels in the blood. Diabetes is a condition in which blood glucose levels are above average.
INSULIN ASPART PROTAMINE contains ‘Insulin aspart protamine’, which works in a similar manner as the insulin produced by the body. It suppresses the production of sugar in the liver and facilitates the reuptake of sugar in the fat and muscle cells. Thereby, INSULIN ASPART PROTAMINE helps in controlling the blood glucose levels.
You are advised to take INSULIN ASPART PROTAMINE for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as hypoglycaemia (low blood glucose levels), injection site reactions, rash, and itching sensations. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are recommended to consult your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Do not skip any doses or stop taking INSULIN ASPART PROTAMINE suddenly without consulting your doctor as it may lead to increased blood glucose levels. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. INSULIN ASPART PROTAMINE should not be given to children below 10 years. Avoid alcohol consumption while taking INSULIN ASPART PROTAMINE as it might increase side-effects. INSULIN ASPART PROTAMINE may cause hypoglycaemia, so drive only if you are alert. Inform your doctor about all the medications you are taking and your health condition to rule out any unpleasant side effects.
