100 IU \/ ml injection solution in a pre-filled pen
human insulin<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Insuman Rapid contains the active substance human insulin, which is manufactured using biotechnology and is identical to the body’s own insulin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Insuman Rapid is an insulin solution with rapid onset of action and a short duration of action. It comes in cartridges you sealed in a pen for single-use SoloStar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Insuman Rapid is used to reduce high blood sugar in patients with diabetes mellitus who need insulin treatment. Diabetes mellitus is a disease in which the body does not produce enough insulin to control blood sugar levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you are allergic to insulin or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Insuman Rapid in a pre-filled pen should only be injected under the skin (see also section 3). Talk to your doctor if you need to inject your insulin using another method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before using Insuman Rapid.
Be sure to follow the dosing instructions and instructions for control (of blood and urine), eating habits, physical activities (physical work and exercise), and injection technique as discussed with your doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Talk to your doctor if you are allergic to this medicine or insulin of animal origin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Special patient groups<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have problems with your liver or kidneys or if you are older, talk to your doctor as you may need a lower insulin dose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Skin changes at the injection site<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n To prevent skin changes, e.g. nodules under the skin, you should constantly change the injection site. It may be that insulin et not work as well if you inject in an area of nodules (see How to use Insuman Rapid). Contact your doctor before changing the injection site if you are currently injecting in an area with lumps. Your doctor may advise you to check your blood sugar more often and to adjust your insulin dose or the dose of other diabetes medicines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Travel<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Consult your doctor before setting out on a journey. You may need to raise questions about<\/p>\n\n\n\n Diseases and injuries<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In the following situations, the management of your diabetes may require extra care:<\/p>\n\n\n\n In most cases, you will need medical attention. Contact a doctor at an early stage.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have type 1 diabetes (insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus ), you should not stop taking insulin and you should continue to add enough carbohydrates. Always tell those who see you or treat you that you need insulin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some patients with long-term type 2 diabetes mellitus and heart disease or previous stroke, treated with pioglitazone and insulin, developed heart failure. Tell your doctor as soon as possible if you get signs of heart failure such as increased shortness of breath, rapid weight gain, or local swelling ( edema ).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some medicines affect the blood sugar level (lowering, raising, or both and depending on the circumstances). In either case, it may be necessary to adjust your insulin dose to avoid blood sugar levels that are either too low or too high. Keep this in mind when you start or stop taking another medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines. Before taking any medicine, consult your doctor if it may affect your blood sugar level and if so, what to do next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Drugs that can lower blood sugar (hypoglycemia) include:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Drugs that can increase blood sugar levels ( hyperglycemia ) include:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Blood sugar levels can sometimes increase and sometimes decrease if you use:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Pentamidine (used to treat certain parasitic infectious diseases) can cause hypoglycaemia which can sometimes be followed by hyperglycaemia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition, beta-blockers, as well as other sympatholytic drugs (such as clonidine, guanethidine, and reserpine), may weaken or completely suppress the initial warning signs that help you recognize hypoglycaemia. Your blood sugar levels can either increase or decrease if you drink alcohol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tell your doctor if you intend to become pregnant or if you are already pregnant. The insulin dose may need to be adjusted during pregnancy and after delivery. For the sake of the child, it is especially important that your diabetes is monitored and that hypoglycaemia is prevented. However, there is no experience with the use of Insuman Rapid in pregnant women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are breastfeeding, your insulin dose and diet may need to be adjusted, so consult your doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Your ability to concentrate and react may deteriorate if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Always remember the risk of this in all situations where you may expose yourself and others to danger (such as driving or using machines). Contact your doctor for advice on driving if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n This medicine contains less than 1 mmol (23 mg) sodium per dose, ie essentially ‘sodium-free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dose<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Depending on your lifestyle and the results of your blood glucose ( glucose ) test, your doctor will<\/p>\n\n\n\n Many factors can affect blood sugar levels. You need to know these factors so that you can react correctly when your blood sugar level changes and to prevent the level from becoming too high or too low. See the box at the end of the package leaflet for further information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Time of administration<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Insuman Rapid is injected under the skin 15 – 20 minutes before a meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Method of administration<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Insuman Rapid is a solution for injection under the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n SoloStar can administer insulin in doses ranging from 1-80 units in increments of 1 unit. Each pen contains several doses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Your doctor will show you in which area of \u200b\u200bthe skin insulin et should be injected. Change the injection site each time in the area of \u200b\u200bthe skin that you use for injection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Management of SoloStar<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n SoloStar is a pre-filled disposable pen that contains human insulin. Insuman Rapid in a pre-filled pen should only be injected under the skin. Talk to your doctor if you need to inject your insulin using another method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Carefully read the SoloStar Instructions for Use attached to this leaflet. You must use the pen as described in this manual.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Attach a new injection needle before each use. Only use injection needles that are approved for use with SoloStar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A safety test should be performed before each injection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Check the cartridge before using the pen. Do not use Insuman Rapid if you notice particles in it. Only use Insuman Rapid if the solution is clear, colorless, and water-like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Always use a new pen if you notice that your blood sugar control unexpectedly deteriorates. If you suspect that you have a problem with SoloStar, contact your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To avoid possible transmission of disease, each pen should only be used by one patient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Special precautions before injection<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Make sure that neither alcohol nor other disinfectants or other substances contaminate the insulin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Do not mix insulin with other medicines. Insuman Rapid SoloStar, a pre-filled pen, is not intended for any other insulin to be mixed in a cartridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Empty pens must not be refilled and must be discarded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Do not use SoloStar if it is damaged or not working properly. It will then be discarded and a new SoloStar will be used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This can lead to severe hyperglycaemia (very high blood sugar) and ketoacidosis<\/p>\n\n\n\n (development of acid in the blood because the body breaks down fat instead of sugar). Do not stop taking Insuman Rapid without consulting a doctor who will tell you what needs to be done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have any further questions on the use of this product, ask your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Insulin confusions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n You must always check the insulin label before each injection to avoid confusing Insuman Rapid with other insulins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The most serious side effects are<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Less common side effects are<\/strong> (may affect up to 1 in 100 people)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Adverse reactions reported with unknown frequency<\/strong> (cannot be calculated from the available data)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Other <\/em>side effects<\/em> are <\/em>adverse reaction<\/strong> is reported as normal<\/strong> (may affect up to 1 in 10 persons)<\/em> Side effects are reported as uncommon<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Adverse reactions have been reported with unknown frequency<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A marked change (improvement or deterioration) in blood sugar control may temporarily interfere with vision. If you have proliferative retinopathy (an eye disease associated with diabetes ), severe hypoglycaemic attacks can cause temporary loss of vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you inject insulin too often in the same place in the skin, the adipose tissue in this place under the skin may shrink (lipoatrophy) or thicken (lipohypertrophy). Nodules under the skin can also be caused by the accumulation of a protein called amyloid ( cutaneous amyloidosis). It may be that insulin et not work as well if you inject in an area with nodules. Change the injection site for each injection to prevent these skin changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Other mild injection site reactions (such as redness, unusually intense pain at the injection site, itching, swelling, and inflammation at the injection site) may occur. These reactions may also occur around the injection site. Most less severe insulin reactions usually last from a few days to a few weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Insulin treatment may cause the formation of antibodies to insulin (substances that react with insulin ). However, it is very rare that it becomes necessary to change the insulin dosage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Reporting of side effects<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you get any side effects, talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse. This also applies to any side effects not mentioned in this information. You can also report side effects directly to the Medical Products Agency. By reporting side effects, you can help increase drug safety information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Keep this medicine out of the sight and reach of children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Do not use this medicine after the expiry date which is stated on the carton and on the pen label after \u201cEXP\u201d. The expiration date is the last day of the specified month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pencils not in use<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Store in a refrigerator (2 -C-8 \u00baC). Do not freeze. Do not place the pre-filled pen near the freezer compartment or cooling lamp. Pencils during use<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Pre-filled pens during use or carried as a spare can be stored for a maximum of 4 weeks at a maximum of 25 \u00b0 C protected from direct heat (eg next to an element) or direct light (direct sunlight or next to a lamp). The pen during use must not be stored in the refrigerator. Do not use the pen after this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Medicines should not be disposed of via wastewater or household waste. Ask your pharmacist how to dispose of medicines no longer required. These measures will help to protect the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Insuman Rapid is a clear and colorless solution for injection without visible solid particles and with a water-like consistency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Insuman Rapid is supplied in pre-filled pens, SoloStar containing 3 ml solution (300 IU).
