WHAT HUMULIN M3 KWIKPEN IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR Humulin M3 KwikPen is a pre-filled pen containing the active substance human insulin, which is used to treat diabetes.

Your doctor may tell you to use Humulin M3 KwikPen as well as a longer-acting insulin. Each kind of insulin comes with its own 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. Each type of insulin has a different colour and symbol on the pack and the pen so that you can easily tell the difference. 2.
