Composition

Human Premix Insulin (40 Iu)

Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML is used to control blood sugar levels in people with diabetes mellitus who need insulin therapy. It belongs to the class of medications known as human insulin preparations.

This medicine helps manage both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes by combining a fast-acting and longer-lasting insulin effect. The dual-action formulation aims to mimic your body's natural insulin pattern, helping to control blood sugar levels after meals as well as between meals, providing both immediate and extended blood glucose management throughout the day.

The injection should be administered as directed by your doctor, typically 15-30 minutes before meals. Before starting this medicine, it's important to inform your doctor about any existing medical conditions or medications you're currently taking. If you experience any side effects while using this insulin, notify your doctor promptly.

Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML is used for the following:

Managing blood sugar levels in Type 1 diabetes
Controlling glucose levels in Type 2 diabetes
Providing both short-term and long-term insulin coverage
Simulating natural insulin patterns in diabetic patients
Preventing diabetic complications from uncontrolled sugar levels
Supporting insulin needs during illness or stress
Balancing blood glucose before and after meals

Follow these instructions while administering Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML:

Gently roll the vial between your palms before use.
Administer subcutaneously in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm.
Rotate injection sites within the same region regularly.
Administer 15-30 minutes before meals.

Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML is administered subcutaneously.

Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML may have the following common side effects:

Hypoglycemia: This occurs when your blood sugar drops too low, causing symptoms like sweating, dizziness, tremors, hunger, confusion, and headache.
Injection site reactions: You may experience pain, redness, or swelling when you inject the insulin.
Weight gain
Allergic reactions
Sodium retention: This happens when your body holds onto extra sodium, which can sometimes lead to fluid buildup.
Edema refers to swelling caused by excess fluid trapped in the body's tissues, often noticed in the ankles, feet, and legs.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless and are resolved by discontinuing the use of Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some ways to manage common side effects:

Hypoglycemia: Administer Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML 15-30 minutes before meals to help prevent low blood sugar episodes.
Injection site reactions: Rotate your injection sites within the same body region to reduce pain, redness, or swelling.

Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML contains Human Premix Insulin (40 IU), which works on the body as follows:

Glucose uptake enhancement: The insulin in this medicine binds to specific receptors on cell surfaces, particularly in muscle and fat tissues, facilitating the movement of glucose from the bloodstream into these cells and thus reducing blood glucose levels.
Liver glucose production inhibition: It prevents your liver from producing and releasing excessive glucose into the bloodstream, contributing to better blood sugar control.
Protein synthesis promotion: Insulin helps your body build proteins by enhancing amino acid transport into cells and stimulating protein synthesis, supporting proper tissue maintenance and growth.
Fat metabolism regulation: It promotes the storage of fat and inhibits the breakdown of fat stores, helping maintain balanced energy metabolism in your body.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML if pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Caution is advised while taking Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML if you are breastfeeding. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Alcohol

Alcohol may affect your blood sugar levels when you are using Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML. It can increase the risk of hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar). Consider avoiding alcohol or discuss with your doctor how to manage your insulin dose if you plan to drink.

Liver

Caution is advised while taking Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML if you have liver problems. Your liver helps regulate blood glucose levels, and liver impairment may affect how your body responds to insulin. Your doctor may need to adjust your dosage.

Kidney

Caution is advised before using Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML if you have a history of any kidney problems. Kidney function can affect insulin requirements, and you may need dose adjustments. It is a good idea to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

Hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar) can affect your ability to concentrate and react. This may be dangerous when driving or operating machinery. Be aware of your blood sugar levels before such activities, and carry a quick source of sugar with you.

Allergy

If you have a known allergy to human insulin or any ingredients in Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML, do not use this medicine. Tell your doctor about any previous allergic reactions to insulin products before starting treatment.

Children

Caution is advised when administering Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML to children. The safety and effectiveness in children may vary, and insulin requirements change during growth phases. Always consult your doctor before giving this medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients should take Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects, particularly hypoglycaemia. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status and may recommend more frequent blood sugar monitoring.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML interacts with the following medicines:

Corticosteroids: Medicines like prednisolone and dexamethasone can reduce the effectiveness of Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML, potentially causing higher blood sugar levels.
Beta-blockers: Medicines such as propranolol and atenolol may mask low blood sugar warning signs, making it harder to recognise hypoglycaemia.
Thiazide diuretics: Water tablets like bendroflumethiazide and indapamide can decrease the blood sugar-lowering effect of Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML.
Oral contraceptives: Birth control medicines like ethinylestradiol combinations may reduce insulin sensitivity, requiring dose adjustments of Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML.
Thyroid hormones: Medicines such as levothyroxine can affect glucose metabolism, potentially altering your insulin requirements.

Drug-Food Interactions

Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML has minimal direct food interactions, but meal timing affects its action.

Carbohydrates: Foods high in carbohydrates can raise blood sugar levels rapidly, requiring careful coordination with Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML administration.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML interacts with the following diseases:

Renal impairment: Patients with kidney problems may experience prolonged insulin action, requiring careful dose monitoring and possible reduction.
Hepatic impairment: Liver disease can affect glucose metabolism, potentially altering insulin requirements and response to Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML.
Diabetic ketoacidosis: Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML is not suitable for treating this acute complication of diabetes, which requires immediate medical attention.

Daily Dose

The daily dose of Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML should be administered as prescribed by your doctor. The dosage may vary based on your blood sugar levels, body weight, and response to treatment. It's important to follow the prescribed dosage without making changes on your own.

Over Dose

Taking too much Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML can cause hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar). You might feel sweaty, dizzy, shaky, hungry, confused, or develop a headache. If these symptoms occur, consume something sugary and contact your doctor.

Missed Dose

If you forget to administer Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML, do it as soon as you remember. If it's nearly time for your next dose, skip the missed one and resume your regular schedule. Never increase your dosage to make up for missed doses.

Store unused Univia Mix 30/70 40 IU Injection 10 ML in a refrigerator between 2°C to 8°C (never in the freezer).
Once opened, you can keep the vial at room temperature (below 25°C) for up to 4 weeks.
Protect from direct heat and light.
Keep all medicines out of sight and reach of children.
Do not use after the expiry date printed on the label.

Monitor your carbohydrate intake consistently and try to eat meals at regular times to help maintain steady blood glucose levels throughout the day.
Regularly engage in moderate physical activity, such as walking for 30 minutes daily, as exercise helps improve insulin sensitivity and control blood sugar.
