QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION
Truvelog (insulin aspart) 100 units/mL solution for injection in
cartridge
Truvelog (insulin aspart) 100 units/mL solution for injection in a
pre-filled pen (SoloStar)
Truvelog (insulin aspart) 100 units/mL solution for injection in a
vial
One mL of the solution contains 100 units (equivalent to 3.5 mg)
insulin aspart.
Truvelog is a biosimilar medicine to NovoRapid
®
Penfill
®
and NovoRapid
®
FlexPen
®
. The
comparability of Truvelog with NovoRapid
®
products has been demonstrated with regards to
physicochemical characteristics and pharmacology, efficacy and safety
outcomes.
Insulin aspart is a rapid-acting analogue of human insulin that
rapidly lowers blood glucose.
Insulin aspart is homologous with human insulin with the exception of
a substitution of the
amino acid proline by aspartic acid at position 28 on the B-chain. The
unique structure of
insulin aspart increases the rate of absorption from a subcutaneous
injection site, giving a
faster onset of action, an earlier peak effect and a shorter duration
of action than soluble
human insulin. Insulin aspart is produced by recombinant DNA
technology using
_Escherichia coli_
.

DOSE AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
DOSAGE
Truvelog has a faster onset and a shorter duration of action than
soluble human insulin. Due
to the
faster onset of action, Truvelog should generally be given immediately
before a
meal
or when necessary, soon after the start of a meal.
