Description

Product Introduction

Mixtard 30 HM 100IU/ml Penfill is a type of insulin used to manage blood sugar levels in patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus. It belongs to the category of intermediate-acting insulin analogs, which are designed to provide a steady release of insulin over an extended period. This particular formulation comes in Penfill cartridges, each containing 3 ml of the solution. It is administered using a compatible insulin delivery device, ensuring precise and convenient dosing for patients.

Uses of Mixtard 30 HM 100IU/ml Penfill

Mixtard 30 HM 100IU/ml Penfill is primarily prescribed for the following purposes:

  • Diabetes Management: It is used to control high blood sugar levels in patients with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Type 1 diabetes requires insulin as the body does not produce enough insulin on its own. Type 2 diabetes may also require insulin when oral medications or other injectable medications are insufficient to control blood sugar levels.

Benefits of Mixtard 30 HM 100IU/ml Penfill

  • Effective Blood Sugar Control: Mixtard 30 HM helps regulate blood glucose levels by mimicking the action of naturally produced insulin in the body. This helps prevent hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) and its associated complications.
  • Convenience and Flexibility: The Penfill cartridge format offers ease of use and accurate dosing, making it convenient for patients to manage their insulin therapy effectively.
  • Stable Blood Sugar Levels: By providing both short-acting and intermediate-acting insulin components, Mixtard 30 HM helps maintain more stable blood sugar levels throughout the day, reducing the risk of sudden spikes or drops.

Side Effects of Mixtard 30 HM 100IU/ml Penfill

While Mixtard 30 HM is generally well-tolerated, like all medications, it can cause side effects in some individuals. Common side effects may include:

  • Hypoglycemia: Low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia) are a potential side effect of insulin therapy, particularly if the dosage is too high or if meals are missed or delayed.
  • Injection Site Reactions: Mild reactions such as redness, swelling, or itching at the injection site may occur. These are usually temporary and resolve on their own.
  • Weight Gain: Some patients may experience weight gain as a result of improved blood sugar control and the anabolic effects of insulin.
  • Hypokalemia: In some cases, insulin therapy can lead to low potassium levels in the blood, though this is less common.
