FIASP PENFILL 3 ML

How FIASP PENFILL 3 ML Works

• FIASP PENFILL 3 ML is a rapid-acting insulin formulation designed to help manage blood sugar levels effectively. Once injected, it begins to work within approximately 10 to 20 minutes, providing a quick response to elevated glucose levels, particularly after meals. This rapid action makes it a valuable tool for individuals with diabetes seeking better control over their postprandial blood sugar spikes.
• This medication functions similarly to the insulin naturally produced by your body. Insulin's primary role is to facilitate the uptake of glucose from the bloodstream into cells, especially muscle and fat cells. This process provides cells with the energy they need to function correctly. By promoting glucose uptake, FIASP PENFILL 3 ML helps lower blood sugar levels.
• In addition to its role in glucose uptake, FIASP PENFILL 3 ML also inhibits the liver from releasing more glucose into the bloodstream. The liver naturally produces glucose, but in individuals with diabetes, this process can become dysregulated, leading to elevated blood sugar. By suppressing glucose release from the liver, FIASP PENFILL 3 ML further contributes to maintaining healthy blood sugar levels throughout the day.

Most side effects are temporary and generally resolve as your body adapts to FIASP PENFILL 3 ML. However, if any side effects persist or cause concern, it is important to consult your doctor.

• Hypoglycemia (low blood glucose level)
• Headache
• Nasopharyngitis (inflammation of the throat and nasal passages)
• Upper respiratory tract infection

• Keep FIASP PENFILL 3ML away from the reach of children and pets.
• Store FIASP PENFILL 3ML in a refrigerator (2 - 8°C). Do not freeze.

• FIASP PENFILL 3 ML helps manage blood sugar and prevent long-term health issues related to diabetes.
• For best results, inject FIASP PENFILL 3 ML 15 minutes before eating or within 20 minutes of starting your meal.
• Be aware of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), a common side effect. Check your blood sugar regularly.
• Always have a sugary snack or fruit juice on hand to treat hypoglycemia symptoms like cold sweats, pale skin, shaking, feeling weak, or anxiety.
• Injecting FIASP PENFILL 3 ML under the skin of your stomach allows the medicine to be absorbed faster than injecting in other areas.
• Change your injection spot each time to avoid developing hard lumps under the skin.
• Once opened, FIASP PENFILL 3 ML vials/cartridges can be kept at room temperature for up to 4 weeks. Unopened vials should be stored in the refrigerator (2°C–8°C).
• Do not use FIASP PENFILL 3 ML if it looks cloudy, discolored, or has particles in it.
• To effectively manage your diabetes, combine FIASP PENFILL 3 ML with regular exercise, a healthy diet, and any other diabetes medications your doctor has prescribed.
• Regular monitoring of blood glucose levels is crucial for effectively managing diabetes and adjusting insulin dosages as needed. Discuss a blood glucose monitoring plan with your healthcare provider.
• Learn to recognize the early signs and symptoms of both hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) and know how to respond appropriately. Educate family members and close contacts on how to assist in case of emergency.
• When traveling, always carry your FIASP PENFILL 3 ML, syringes/pens, and blood glucose monitoring supplies with you. Keep them in your carry-on luggage to avoid loss or damage. Also, carry a prescription or a letter from your doctor explaining your need for insulin.
• Proper disposal of used needles and syringes is essential to prevent accidental needle sticks and the spread of infections. Use a sharps container and follow local guidelines for disposal.
• It's important to inform your doctor about any other medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements, as they can interact with FIASP PENFILL 3 ML and affect your blood sugar levels.
• Consistent timing of insulin injections and meals can significantly improve blood sugar control. Work with your healthcare provider to establish a consistent daily routine.
• Stress can affect blood sugar levels. Practice stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, or yoga to help manage stress and maintain stable blood sugar levels.
• Alcohol can also affect blood sugar levels, especially when taken on an empty stomach. If you consume alcohol, do so in moderation and monitor your blood sugar levels closely.
• Illness, such as a cold or flu, can impact blood sugar control. During illness, continue to take your insulin as prescribed and monitor your blood sugar levels more frequently. Contact your doctor if you have difficulty managing your blood sugar levels during illness.
• Foot care is essential for people with diabetes. Inspect your feet daily for any cuts, blisters, or sores. Wear comfortable shoes and avoid walking barefoot. See a podiatrist regularly for foot exams.
• Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. Dehydration can affect blood sugar levels. Aim for at least eight glasses of water per day, unless otherwise directed by your healthcare provider.
