Humapen Ergo II Insulin Pen
Composition:
The Humapen Ergo II Insulin Pen is a pre-filled insulin delivery device designed for the injection of insulin. It is compatible with a variety of insulin formulations, including rapid-acting, long-acting, and biphasic insulins. The insulin pen itself does not contain insulin but is designed for use with insulin cartridges (insulin not included with the pen).
Indications:
The Humapen Ergo II Insulin Pen is used for the subcutaneous delivery of insulin in patients with diabetes mellitus. It is intended for individuals with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes who require insulin therapy to control their blood glucose levels. The pen allows for easy and precise insulin injections, helping patients maintain better control over their blood sugar levels.
Mechanism of Action:
The Humapen Ergo II Insulin Pen functions as a delivery device for various types of insulin, each with its specific action profile (rapid-acting, long-acting, or mixed insulins). The insulin used with this pen helps regulate blood glucose levels by mimicking the body’s natural insulin response, either by facilitating the uptake of glucose into cells or by decreasing the liver's production of glucose. The Humapen Ergo II allows for precise dosing of insulin to meet individual patient needs, improving overall blood sugar control.
Dosage:
The dosage of insulin delivered via the Humapen Ergo II should be determined by a healthcare provider based on the patient’s individual needs, blood glucose levels, and insulin sensitivity. Typically, insulin doses are adjusted depending on factors such as diet, physical activity, and overall health. The Humapen Ergo II allows for a range of 1 to 60 units per injection, with adjustable increments to ensure accuracy. It is important to follow the prescribed dosing schedule and adjust as needed under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
Packaging:
The Humapen Ergo II Insulin Pen is packaged as a single pen device, compatible with insulin cartridges (sold separately). Each pen is designed for multiple uses, with a user-friendly interface and easy-to-read dosage scale for accurate insulin delivery.
