CLINICAL
PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC
INDICATIONS
Lyxumia is indicated for the treatment of adults with type 2 diabetes
mellitus to achieve glycaemic control in
combination with metformin, sulphonylurea, or a basal insulin,
metformin and sulphonylurea, and basal insulin
and metformin when these, together with diet and exercise, do not
provide adequate glycaemic control.
4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
Starting dose: dosing is initiated at 10 mcg Lyxumia once daily for 14
days.
Maintenance
dose: a fixed
maintenance
dose of 20 mcg Lyxumia once daily is started on Day 15.
Lyxumia 20 micrograms solution for injection is available for the
maintenance
dose.
Lyxumia is administered once daily, within the hour prior to any meal
of the day. It is preferable that the prandial
injection of Lyxumia is performed before the same meal every day, when
the most convenient meal has been chosen. If a
dose of Lyxumia is missed, it should be injected within the hour prior
to the next meal.
When Lyxumia is added to existing metformin therapy, the current
metformin dose can be continued unchanged.
When Lyxumia is added to existing therapy of a sulphonylurea or a
basal insulin, a reduction in the dose of the
sulphonylurea or the basal insulin may be considered to reduce the
risk of hypoglycaemia. Lyxumia should not be
given in
combination
with basal insulin and a
sulphonylurea
due to increased risk of
hypoglycaemia
(see section 4.4).
The use of Lyxumia does not require specific blood glucose monitoring.
However, when used in combination with a
sulphonylurea or a basal insulin, blood glucose monitorin
