Insulin Glulisine
Uses
Insulin Glulisine is used in the treatment of diabetes.
How it Works
How Insulin Glulisine Works Insulin Glulisine is a fast-acting insulin that begins to take effect within 10 to 20 minutes after injection. It functions similarly to the insulin produced by the body. Insulin facilitates the uptake of glucose in muscle and fat cells and also inhibits the release of glucose from the liver.
Side Effects
Common side effects of Insulin Glulisine include severe hypoglycemia, nasopharyngitis (inflammation of the throat and nasal passages), and upper respiratory tract infection.
Expert Advice
- Take it 15 minutes before a meal or within 20 minutes after starting a meal.
- Rotate injection sites to prevent hard lumps from developing at one location.
- Injecting below the skin of the abdomen results in faster absorption compared to other injection sites.
- Do not use it if the preparation is no longer clear and colorless or if it contains particles.
- Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) is a common side effect; monitor your blood sugar level regularly.
- Always carry some sugary food or fruit juice with you in case you experience hypoglycemia symptoms, such as:
- Cold sweats
- Cool, pale skin
- Tremors
