Humulin® R Vial 1x10ml U-100

Description

Humulin® R Vial U-100 per ml is a quick-acting insulin used to help manage diabetes. This insulin is regular human insulin, made with modern technology to keep blood sugar levels steady and effective. This insulin is available in a strength of 100 units per 1 ml, enabling precise dosing for patients who require it. Humulin® R Vial effectively manages blood sugar levels during meals, beginning to take effect approximately 30 minutes after injection. Its strongest effect is 2 to 3 hours after injection and continues to help lower blood sugar for 5-8 hours.

In addition to regular human insulin, the formulation includes metacresol, which serves as a preservative to maintain product integrity. Glycerol (glycerin) is also present, helping to stabilize the insulin solution for consistent performance and reliability during use. The formulation includes water, hydrochloric acid (10% solution), and/or sodium hydroxide (10% solution) to adjust and maintain the proper pH level. Maintaining the right pH level is crucial for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the insulin solution for patients.

Patients closely monitor their blood sugar levels and consult their doctor to find the right dosage and timing for injections. Like all insulin treatments, Humulin R can cause side effects, including low blood sugar, weight gain, and injection site reactions. Individuals using Humulin R should be aware of these potential side effects and discuss any concerns with their healthcare provider. Regular check-ins with a healthcare provider are important for managing diabetes well.
