WHAT INSULIN LISPRO SANOFI IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Insulin lispro Sanofi is used to treat diabetes. It works more quickly
than normal human insulin
because the insulin molecule has been changed slightly.
You get diabetes if your pancreas does not make enough insulin to
control the level of glucose in your
blood. Insulin lispro Sanofi is a substitute for your own insulin and
is used to control glucose in the
long term. It works very quickly and lasts a shorter time than soluble
insulin (2 to 5 hours). You
should normally use
Insulin lispro Sanofi within 15 minutes of a meal.
Your doctor may tell you to use Insulin lispro Sanofi as well as a
longer-acting insulin. Each kind of
insulin comes with another patient information leaflet to tell you
about it. Do not change your insulin
unless your doctor tells you to. Be very careful if you do change
insulin.
Insulin lispro Sanofi is suitable for use in adults and children.
