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. You get diabetes if your pancreas does not make
enough insulin to control the level of
glucose in your blood (blood sugar). Humulin M3 is used to control
glucose in the long term. It is
a premixed suspension of rapid and long acting insulin. Its action is
prolonged by the inclusion of
protamine sulfate in the suspension.
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.

Posology
The dosage should be determined by the physician, according to the
requirement of the patient.
_Paediatric population _No data are available Method of administration
Humulin M3 in pre-filled pen is only suitable for subcutaneous
injections. This formulation should not be administered
intravenously.
Subcutaneous administration should be in the upper arms, thighs,
buttocks or abdomen. Use of injection sites should be
rotated so that the same site is not used more than approximately once
a month in order to reduce the risk of lipodystrophy
and cutaneous amyloidosis (see section 4.4 and 4.8).
Care should be taken when injecting any Humulin insulin preparations
to ensure that a blood vessel has not been entered.
After any insulin injection, the injection site should not be
massaged. Patients must be educated to use proper injection
techniques.
Humulin Mixture formulation is a ready-made defined mixture of soluble
and isophane insulin designed to avoid the need for
the patient to mix insulin preparations. A patient's treatment regimen
should be based on their individual metabolic
requirements.
