Question 1

How do I properly inject my insulin?

Accepted Answer

Wash your hands, choose and clean the injection site, remove the needle cap, stabilize the skin, insert the needle, press the knob, and apply pressure to the site afterward. Rotate injection sites to avoid using the same one more than once a month.

Question 2

Do I need to prime my pen before use?

Accepted Answer

Yes, prime your pen to avoid incorrect dosing. Set the dose knob to 2 units, hold the pen with the needle up, tap to collect air bubbles, push the dose knob until '0' appears, hold for 5 seconds, and check for insulin at the needle tip.

Question 3

What should I do if I experience side effects?

Accepted Answer

Contact your doctor if you experience any side effects.

Question 4

What should I do if the dose knob is difficult to push?

Accepted Answer

Try pushing the dose knob more slowly. If it remains hard to push, your needle may be blocked; replace it with a new needle and prime the pen.

Question 5

Which medications can decrease my insulin requirements?

Accepted Answer

Drugs that may decrease insulin requirements include oral antidiabetic agents, salicylates, sulfa antibiotics, certain antidepressants, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers, beta-blockers, pancreatic function inhibitors, and alcohol. Note that beta-blockers can mask hypoglycemia symptoms.

Question 6

Which medications can increase my insulin requirements?

Accepted Answer

Medications that may increase insulin requirements include corticosteroids, isoniazid, certain lipid-lowering drugs, estrogens, oral contraceptives, phenothiazines, and thyroid replacement therapy.

Question 8

How do I prepare my Eglucent Mix 25/75 (100 IU/ml) (1*3ml Disposable Kwikpen) device for injection?

Accepted Answer

Rotate the insulin device in your hands ten times and invert it 180° ten times before use until the insulin is uniformly cloudy. Avoid vigorous shaking to prevent frothing. Check for clumps or solid particles in the cartridge before use.

Question 9

Is Eglucent Mix 25/75 (100 IU/ml) (1*3ml Disposable Kwikpen) safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding?

Accepted Answer

Data shows no adverse effects of insulin lispro (main ingredient in Eglucent Mix 25/75 (100 IU/ml) (1*3ml Disposable Kwikpen)) on pregnancy or fetal health. Insulin needs may change during pregnancy, so patients should inform their doctor if pregnant or planning to become pregnant, and monitor glucose levels closely. Adjustments in insulin or diet may be needed while breastfeeding.
