INSULIN HUMAN+ISOPHANE INSULIN is used for the treatment of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. In Diabetes Mellitus Type 1, the body does not make enough insulin to control blood sugar levels. In Diabetes Mellitus type 2, either the body stops producing enough insulin (the hormone which helps to decrease sugar levels in the blood) or there is resistance to the action of insulin. As a result, insulin is produced in large amounts, but it cannot act on the organs of the body.
INSULIN HUMAN+ISOPHANE INSULIN is a combination of two drugs, namely: Insulin Human (a short-acting type of insulin) and Isophane Insulin (intermediate-acting). INSULIN HUMAN+ISOPHANE INSULIN suppresses the production of sugar in the liver and facilitates the reuptake of sugar in the fat and muscle cells, thereby INSULIN HUMAN+ISOPHANE INSULIN ensures rapid and consistent sugar control.
