Mixtard 50/50 100 Iu Injection 10 Ml is a mixed insulin used to control blood sugar in adults with diabetes who need insulin, giving both a fast start and a longer, steadier effect to cover meals and the time between them.
It contains a mix of fast-acting and intermediate-acting insulin. It works by replacing the insulin the body needs to move sugar from the blood into the cells.
Inject it under the skin as prescribed, usually shortly before a meal, rotating the injection site each time. Do not stop it without medical advice.
Watch for low blood sugar, especially if a meal is missed or delayed or after extra activity, and keep a sugary snack to hand. Tell your doctor about any change to your routine, and never change the dose without advice.
