Wosulin R Injection is a short-acting human insulin used to control blood sugar in people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. It belongs to the insulin class of medicines.

It helps glucose move from the blood into cells for energy and reduces the amount of glucose released by the liver.

Use it exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Your doctor or diabetes educator will show you how to inject it under the skin, monitor your blood sugar and rotate injection sites.

Before using this medicine, tell your doctor about any kidney or liver problems, changes in diet or activity, or other medicines you take. Learn the signs of low blood sugar and keep a fast-acting glucose source available.

Wosulin R Injection is used to control blood sugar in people with diabetes.

Uses of Wosulin R Injection are:

Type 1 Diabetes: Replaces the insulin the body cannot make.
Type 2 Diabetes: Helps control blood sugar when insulin treatment is required.
Mealtime Blood Sugar Control: Helps reduce the rise in blood sugar linked to meals when used as prescribed.

This injection is administered subcutaneously, which means it's injected under the skin.
The usual sites for injection are your abdomen, thighs, or upper arms.
Remember to rotate the injection sites to avoid skin thickening or thinning.
For any specific instructions or adjustments based on your condition, consult your doctor.

Wosulin R Injection is administered subcutaneously, which means it's given under the skin.

Wosulin R Injection may cause some side effects that need monitoring.

A few common side effects of Wosulin R Injection:

Low Blood Sugar: Sweating, shakiness, hunger, a fast heartbeat, dizziness or confusion.
Injection Site: Pain, redness, itching, swelling or changes in the fatty tissue under the skin.
General: Weight gain or swelling caused by fluid build-up.

If side effects do not improve or become serious, speak to your doctor right away.

Management Of Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Wosulin R Injection. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Hypoglycaemia: If you experience low blood sugar levels after administering Wosulin R Injection, consider having a small snack before taking it.
Lipodystrophy: To prevent changes in your skin at the injection site, try rotating the sites where you administer Wosulin R Injection.

Wosulin R Injection is a combination medication composed of two key components:

Regular Human Insulin (40 IU/ml): This component works by mimicking the effects of insulin produced by the human body. It binds to insulin receptors on cell surfaces, triggering cellular processes that lead to increased glucose uptake, reduced glucose production by the liver, and inhibition of lipolysis and proteolysis. These actions collectively help in lowering blood sugar levels.
M-Cresol (0.25%): This component acts as a preservative in the insulin solution, helping maintain its sterility and stability.

Pregnancy

Wosulin R Injection can be used during pregnancy if clinically necessary. Regular monitoring of glucose levels and potential dose adjustments may be needed. It's best to consult your doctor before using this medicine when pregnant.

Breastfeeding

Wosulin R Injection can be used while breastfeeding if clinically necessary. Consult your doctor for advice on maintaining optimal glucose levels during lactation.

Alcohol

Drinking alcohol while using Wosulin R Injection can increase the risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). It's recommended to consult your doctor about the safe limits of alcohol consumption.

Liver

If you have liver problems, it's important to discuss this with your doctor before starting Wosulin R Injection. Your insulin dosage may need adjusting as liver impairment may alter insulin metabolism.

Kidney

Caution is advised when using Wosulin R Injection for those with kidney health issues. Your doctor should be consulted, as kidney impairment may affect insulin metabolism.

Use In Driving And Operating Machinery

Hypoglycemia caused by insulin therapy, such as with Wosulin R Injection, can affect your ability to drive or operate machinery. Be aware of the signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia and take appropriate precautions.

Allergy

In rare cases, an allergic reaction to insulin or other ingredients in Wosulin R Injection might occur. Symptoms could include rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing. If you have known allergies, discuss these with your doctor before starting this medicine.

Children

Wosulin R Injection is an adult-use medicine and is not generally recommended for children under 18 years old without medical supervision.

Older Patients

Older patients should use Wosulin R Injection under medical supervision due to potentially greater susceptibility to its effects. Consultation with a doctor is especially important for older patients who might have liver and kidney issues or might be on other medication.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Wosulin R Injection interacts with the following medicines:

Oral Antidiabetic Agents: Medicines like metformin or glipizide may interact with Wosulin R Injection, potentially altering blood glucose levels and requiring dose adjustments.
Corticosteroids: Steroids such as prednisone or dexamethasone can increase blood glucose levels, possibly affecting the effectiveness of Wosulin R Injection.
Thyroid Hormones: Medicines like levothyroxine may affect glucose metabolism and necessitate changes in the dosage of Wosulin R Injection.
Protease Inhibitors: Antiviral medicines like ritonavir or indinavir could impact blood sugar control when used in conjunction with Wosulin R Injection.
Atypical Antipsychotics: Medicines like olanzapine or risperidone may increase blood sugar levels, potentially reducing the effectiveness of this insulin medicine.
Beta-blockers: Medicines such as propranolol and atenolol may mask the signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia, a key side effect of Wosulin R Injection.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Wosulin R Injection interacts with the following diseases:

Hypoglycemia: Low blood sugar is a common side effect of insulin therapy. Patients must monitor their glucose levels closely when using Wosulin R Injection.
Renal Impairment: Patients with kidney disease may need dose adjustments, as these conditions could affect insulin metabolism.
Hepatic Impairment: People with liver disease should exercise caution. Insulin metabolism may be altered in these conditions, necessitating dosage adjustments.

Daily Dose

Your doctor will prescribe the daily dose of Wosulin R Injection based on your individual needs. The prescribed dosage is based on factors such as the severity of your condition and your response to treatment. Always follow your doctor's instructions and never exceed the prescribed dosage without consulting your doctor. For more detailed information, please refer to the package insert.

Over Dose

In case of an accidental overdose of Wosulin R Injection, you might experience symptoms like sweating, shaking, confusion, or feeling hungry. If you notice these or any other unusual symptoms, inform your doctor promptly.

Missed Dose

If you forget to administer a dose of Wosulin R Injection as scheduled, do it as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for your next dose, skip the forgotten one this time and continue with your usual schedule. Never adjust your dosage without consulting your doctor.

Store unopened vials of Wosulin R Injection in the fridge, maintaining a temperature between 2-8°C.
Avoid extreme cold; never let it freeze.
Once opened, vials can be kept at room temperature, below 25°C, for up to four weeks.
Keep the injection away from direct light and moisture.
Always keep this medication out of the reach of children.
Remember to administer the injection before its expiry date.

Regular physical activity: Incorporating exercise into your daily routine can help manage blood glucose levels effectively. This could be a brisk walk, cycling or any form of workout that suits you. Just ensure to consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regime.
Balanced diet: A diet rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables and lean proteins can help manage diabetes effectively. Limit intake of sugary foods and drinks as they can cause a rapid increase in blood sugar levels. Always consult your doctor for personalised diet advice.
