HUMULIN R Injection – Short-Acting Human Insulin for Diabetes Management

HUMULIN R Injection is a short-acting insulin used to control high blood sugar in individuals with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Containing human insulin (regular insulin), it helps the body regulate blood glucose levels effectively before or after meals.

Key Features:

• Short-Acting Insulin: Begins working within 30 minutes and peaks between 2 to 4 hours after injection.

• Human Insulin: Biosynthetically produced to closely match the body’s natural insulin.

• Used for Type 1 & Type 2 Diabetes: Helps manage blood glucose in both insulin-dependent and non-insulin-dependent diabetes.

• Can Be Combined: Often used with intermediate- or long-acting insulins for complete blood sugar control.

Benefits:

• Improves Glycemic Control: Effectively lowers blood sugar levels after meals.

• Flexible Dosing: Can be adjusted based on individual needs, meals, or glucose levels.

• Supports Diabetes Management: Reduces the risk of diabetes complications such as nerve damage, kidney problems, and vision loss.

• Rapid Onset: Ideal for mealtime insulin therapy.

Usage:

HUMULIN R is administered via subcutaneous injection (under the skin) typically 30 minutes before meals. It may also be given intravenously in hospital settings under supervision.

Dosage:

Dosage is individualized based on blood glucose monitoring, meal patterns, and doctor’s recommendations. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
