Uses of Dongsulin N 100iu Penfill Injection

Dongsulin N 100iu Penfill Injection is used to control blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. Everyone with type 1 diabetes needs it, because their body no longer makes its own insulin. It is also used in type 2 diabetes when tablets are no longer enough, in diabetes during pregnancy, and in hospital to treat emergencies such as diabetic ketoacidosis. Different types work quickly or over a longer period, and your doctor chooses the type that suits you.

How Dongsulin N 100iu Penfill Injection works

Insulin is the hormone that lets sugar move out of the blood and into the body’s cells, where it is used for energy. It also stops the liver from releasing too much stored sugar. Injected insulin replaces or tops up the body’s own supply, bringing high blood sugar levels down.

Possible side effects

The effect to watch for most closely with Dongsulin N 100iu Penfill Injection is low blood sugar. Other common effects include:

• Low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia), with shakiness, sweating or hunger
• Redness, itching or swelling at the injection site
• Lumps or thickened skin where injections are often given
• Weight gain

If you feel shaky, sweaty, confused or unusually drowsy, take a sugary drink or glucose straight away and then eat. Get emergency help if the person cannot swallow, becomes unconscious or has a fit.

Precautions and warnings

• Change your injection site each time within the area your nurse or doctor has shown you, as repeated use of one spot causes lumps and makes the insulin work less reliably.
• Store unopened insulin in a refrigerator and never freeze it; do not use insulin that looks different from normal or has been left in the heat.
• Never change your type or brand of insulin, or share a pen or needle, without speaking to your doctor.
• Alcohol, skipped meals and extra exercise can all cause low blood sugar, so check your levels regularly and take particular care before driving.
• Insulin is widely used in pregnancy and breastfeeding, but your treatment will need close review by your doctor during this time.

Storage
