Insuget® N
Generic Name: Insulin
How Does it Work
Insuget® N contains NPH insulin, which starts working slowly and lasts longer than regular insulin. It begins to lower blood sugar about 1 to 2 hours after injection, reaches its peak in 4 to 12 hours, and continues working for up to 18 hours. This helps keep blood sugar steady between meals and overnight.
How It Helps
- Helps manage diabetes by providing long-lasting blood sugar control.
- Reduces the risk of high sugar levels during the day and while sleeping.
- Often used as a basal insulin, either alone or with other types of insulin or diabetes medicines.
How to Use it
- Insuget® N is injected under the skin, usually once or twice a day, depending on your doctor’s advice.
- It’s best to take it 30 minutes before a meal.
- Before injecting, gently roll the vial to mix the insulin.
- Always rotate injection sites to avoid skin problems.
