Humalog Mix 50 KwikPen (Insulin Lispro)

Humalog Mix 50 KwikPen Drug Info (Pack with 5 Pens x 3 mL each)

• OVERVIEW

  Humalog Mix 50 KwikPens are insulin pens filled with a mixed solution that contains 50% insulin lispro injection and 50% insulin lispro protamine.

  
  

  The Humalog KwikPen is a pre-filled, disposable insulin pen that has a ideal size and simple design that allows you to manage your blood sugar levels at home or on the go with accurate, easy and convenient insulin delivery.

• HOW IT WORKS?

  These kwikpens contain a combination of fast-acting insulin lispro and longer acting insulin protamine.

  
  

  The combination of both lispro and lispro protamine together closely relates to the action of naturally produced insulin in those without diabetes. Providing a steady release of insulin throughout the day, coupled with mealtime blood sugar level regulation, can help reduce your symptoms and increase your overall well-being.

• DOSAGE

  Always follow the health advice of your doctor or other healthcare professional.

  
  

  As with all insulin products, the full course of action of Humalog Mix 25 can vary considerably for different people or even within the same person. The rate of insulin absorption and its onset of activity are known to be affected by the site of injection you choose, exercise level and other variables. Always carefully follow your doctor’s instructions to allow for these types of changes.
