® IS USED FOR
Levemir
®
is
used
to
treat
diabetes
mellitus
in
adults,
adolescents
and
children
aged
1
year
and
above.
Diabetes mellitus is a disease where
your body does not produce enough
insulin to control the level of your
blood sugar.
2. HOW LEVEMIR
® WORKS
Levemir
®
is a modern insulin (insulin
analogue) with a long-acting effect (up
to 24 hours). Modern insulin products
are
improved
versions
of
human
insulin. In treatment of type 2 diabetes
mellitus, Levemir
®
may also be used in
combination
with
oral
antidiabetic
medicines
and/or
with
injectable
antidiabetic
products
other
than
insulin.
Levemir
®
can also be used
with meal-related rapid-acting insulin
products. Compared to other insulin
products,
therapy
with
Levemir
®
is
associated with less weight gain.

POSOLOGY
Levemir
®
is a soluble, basal insulin analogue with a prolonged duration of
effect (up to 24 hours).
Compared to other insulin products, basal-bolus therapy with Levemir
®
is not associated with weight gain.
The lower risk of nocturnal hypoglycaemia compared to NPH (Neutral
Protamine Hagedorn) insulin allows a
more intensive titration towards target blood glucose levels for
basal-bolus therapy.
Levemir
®
provides better glycaemic control as measured by Fasting Plasma
Glucose (FPG) compared to
NPH insulin treatment.
Levemir
®
can be used alone as the basal insulin or in combination with bolus
insulin. It can also be used in
combination with oral antidiabetic medicinal products and/or GLP-1
receptor agonists.
DOSAGE
When Levemir
®
is used in combination with oral antidiabetic medicinal products or
when added to GLP-1
receptor agonists, it is recommended to use Levemir
®
once daily, initially at a dose of 0.1–0.2 U/kg, or of 10
U
IN ADULT PATIENTS.
The dose of Levemir
®
should be titrated based on the individual patient’s needs.
When a GLP-1 receptor agonist is added to Levemir
®
, it is recommended to reduce the dose of Levemir
®
by
20% to minimise the risk of hypoglycaemia. Subsequently, dosage should
be adjusted individually.
