For the treatment of adults and children with diabetes mellitus who require insulin for the maintenance of normal glucose homeostasis. Humalog is also indicated for the initial stabilisation of diabetes mellitus.
KwikPen: Humalog KwikPen is used to treat diabetes. It works more quickly than normal human insulin because the insulin molecule has been changed slightly.
Diabetes is developed if the pancreas does not make enough insulin to control the level of glucose in the blood. Humalog is a substitute for the patient's own insulin and is used to control glucose in the long term. It works very quickly and lasts a shorter time than soluble insulin (2 to 5 hours). The patient should normally use Humalog within 15 minutes of a meal.
The doctor may advise to use Humalog KwikPen as well as a longer-acting insulin. Each kind of insulin comes with another patient information leaflet. Do not change the insulin unless advised by the doctor. Be very careful if there is a change in insulin.
Humalog is suitable for use in adults and children.
