Insulatard HM Penfill 3 ml contains human insulin, used to improve blood sugar control in adults and children with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. It maintains blood sugar levels in both adults and children. Diabetes mellitus is a condition that affects the way your body processes glucose. 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 is not able to act on the organs of the body.
Insulatard HM Penfill 3 ml works by ensuring rapid and consistent sugar control. Insulatard HM Penfill 3 ml is a fast-acting type of insulin which helps to decrease blood sugar levels after the intake of meals. It prevents the chances of developing serious complications of diabetes. It facilitates the reuptake of sugar in muscle and fat cells and thus, suppresses the production of sugar in the liver.
Your doctor will advise you on how to use this medicine. It is advised to get it administered by a healthcare professional. It should be taken 15 minutes prior to the meal or within 20 minutes after you start having a meal. In some cases, you may experience injection site reactions like redness or swelling. Some people gain weight while taking insulin. You may also experience symptoms of hypoglycemia such as cold sweat, cool pale skin, nervousness or tremor, anxious feeling, unusual tiredness or weakness, confusion, difficulty in concentration, drowsiness, excessive hunger, temporary vision changes, headache, nausea and palpitation. Most of these side effects of Insulatard HM Penfill 3 ml do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.
