Novorapid Penfill Injection may have the following common side effects:

Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
Injection site reactions
Weight gain
Allergic reactions
Hypokalemia (low blood potassium)

Management Of Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless and resolve when discontinuing this medicine. However, if you experience any severe side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

To manage hypoglycemia, consume a fast-acting source of sugar, such as glucose tablets or juice.
Injection site reactions such as redness or swelling can typically be managed by rotating the injection site with each dose.

Novorapid Penfill Injection contains the following components:

Insulin Aspart (100 IU): Insulin Aspart is a rapid-acting insulin analogue. It mimics the body's natural insulin but acts quicker and for a shorter duration. It operates by stimulating body tissues to take in glucose from the bloodstream, thereby lowering blood sugar levels. When it binds to insulin receptors on cells, it triggers several effects: it increases glucose uptake into muscle and fat cells, reduces glucose production by the liver, inhibits fat and protein breakdown, and boosts protein synthesis. The Aspart molecule is a modified version of human insulin designed for faster absorption from the injection site. This enables it to imitate the natural insulin response to meals closely.

Pregnancy

This medicine can be used during pregnancy; however, insulin requirements may change during pregnancy. It is crucial to consult a doctor for appropriate management.

Breastfeeding

It is not known whether it passes into breast milk. Consultation with a doctor is advised for lactating mothers.
