POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Actrapid® is a fast-acting insulin and may be used in
combination with long-acting insulin products.
DOSAGE
Dosage is individual and determined in accordance with
the needs of the patient. The individual insulin
requirement is usually between 0.3 and 1.0 IU/kg/day.
The daily insulin requirement may be higher in patients
with insulin resistance (e.g. during puberty or due to
obesity) and lower in patients with residual, endogenous
insulin production.
An injection should be followed within 30 minutes by a
meal or snack containing carbohydrates.
DOSAGE ADJUSTMENT
Concomitant illness, especially infections and feverish
conditions, usually increases the patient’s insulin
requirement. Concomitant diseases in the kidney, liver or
affecting the adrenal, pituitary or thyroid gland can require
changes in the insulin dose. Adjustment of dosage may also
be necessary if patients change physical activity or their usual
diet. Dosage adjustment may be necessary when transferring
patients from one insulin preparation to another.
ADMINISTRATION
For subcutaneous or intravenous use.
Actrapid® is administered subcutaneously in the abdominal
wall. If convenient, the thigh, the gluteal region or the
deltoid region may also be used.
Subcutaneous injection into the abdominal wall ensures a
faster absorption than from other injection sites.
Injection into a lifted skin fold minimises the risk of unint
