Levemir FlexPen Inj 100IU 5PFPx3ml

Levemir FlexPen Inj 100IU 5PFPx3ml is a long-acting insulin medication used to manage blood sugar levels in individuals with diabetes. This product contains insulin detemir, which is a synthetic form of insulin designed to provide a consistent and extended release of insulin into the bloodstream. 

Each package includes 5 FlexPens, each containing 3ml of insulin detemir, making it convenient for individuals requiring regular insulin therapy. Levemir FlexPen is available over the counter, but its use should be guided by a healthcare professional. 

• Levemir FlexPen is used to treat individuals with type 1 diabetes, a condition where the body does not produce insulin naturally. It is also sometimes prescribed for individuals with type 2 diabetes when other forms of insulin or oral diabetes medications are not sufficient to control blood sugar levels effectively.
• The appropriate dosage of Levemir FlexPen varies from person to person and is determined by a healthcare professional based on factors such as age, weight, and individual response to insulin therapy. It is typically injected subcutaneously (under the skin) once or twice daily.
• Levemir FlexPen should be stored at a temperature not exceeding 25°C. Avoid exposure to extreme heat or freezing temperatures. Unused FlexPens should be stored in the refrigerator.
• Ensure that Levemir FlexPen is stored out of reach of children to prevent accidental access. 

Insulin therapy, including insulin detemir (found in Levemir FlexPen), can lead to various side effects. These side effects can include:

• Hypoglycemia
• Injection Site Reactions
• Weight Gain
• Hypersensitivity Reactions

Note: This is not an exhaustive list of side effects. Individuals using Levemir FlexPen should consult with their healthcare provider for a comprehensive understanding of potential side effects and proper management.
