Dosage/Direction for Use
The dosage of Isophane Insulin Human Suspension-NPH (Glysolin N) is determined by the physician, as per the needs of the patient. With Isophane Insulin Human Suspension-NPH (Glysolin N), it is important to use a syringe that is marked for the desired strength (i.e. U-100 insulin preparations). Failure to use the proper syringe can lead to a mistake in dosage, causing serious problems such as severe hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia.
The average range of total daily insulin requirement for maintenance in type 1 diabetic patients ranges between 0.5 and 1.0 IU/kg. Further, in insulin resistance, the daily requirement of insulin may be substantially higher. In patients with type 2 diabetes, the requirements of insulin are lower i.e. approximately 0.3-0.6 IU/kg/day.
Isophane Insulin Human Suspension-NPH (Glysolin N) is administered subcutaneously in the abdominal wall, thigh, gluteal region or the deltoid region.
To avoid lipodystrophy, the site of injection should be frequently changed and any injection of insulin should be followed by a meal or snack containing carbohydrates within 30 minutes. Adjustment of dosage may be necessary if you undertake increased physical activity or change your usual diet.
Use along with other types of insulin: Isophane Insulin Human Suspension-NPH (Glysolin N) can be used only with insulin regular.
