Novolin ge NPH Vial

Novolin ge NPH Vial is a vial containing NPH human insulin isophane suspension for subcutaneous injection. It is an intermediate-acting insulin used to manage high blood sugar levels in individuals with diabetes. This insulin is typically used alongside a fast-acting insulin to address blood sugar fluctuations during and after meals.

Benefits

Novolin ge NPH acts similarly to natural human insulin but with a longer duration. It helps the body utilize and store sugar from food, providing a full day’s insulin action to manage daily blood sugar changes. It usually begins working within 90 minutes, peaks between five to eight hours, and lasts for about 18 to 24 hours.

How to Use

Before using Novolin ge NPH, ensure the insulin is cloudy and white. Do not use it if it appears grainy, lumpy, thick, discolored, or contains crystals. Rotate injection sites to prevent skin issues like lipohypertrophy or lipoatrophy.

Possible Side Effects

• Common: Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
• Less Common: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), lipoatrophy, lipohypertrophy, insulin allergy

Monitor blood sugar levels carefully to avoid hypoglycemia. Seek medical attention if experiencing symptoms of DKA or a generalized insulin allergy.
