Mixed insulin 3 ml.  1 pen.  Sold by Shwe Myittar Pharmacy.

Composition and Indication 

Wosulin 30/70 is used to treat diabetes. It is a mixture consisting of insulin human regular 30% and isophane human insulin suspension 70%. 1 ml contains 100 units of human insulin. Each pen contains 300 units of human insulin in 3 ml suspension for injection. 

Dosage and Precautions 

Wosulin 30/70 is a mixture of fast-acting insulin and long-acting insulin. The onset is within 30 minutes, peak level is reached between 2 to 12 hours and duration of effect is about 18 to 24 hours.

Daily Insulin Requirements in Type 1 diabetes:

  • Between 0.5 and 1.0 IU/kg/day

Daily Insulin Requirements in type 2 diabetes:

  • 0.3 - 0.6 IU/kg/day

Pay attention to special warnings and precautions, including the risks of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), hyperglycemia (high blood sugar), skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders, kidney and liver diseases and potential interactions with other medications.

Undesirable Effects and Drug Interactions 

While using Wosulin 30/70, you may experience certain side effects. These can include hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), vision problems,skin changes at injection sites, signs of allergy (redness, swelling, itching), peripheral neuropathy (pain due to nerve damage), swollen joints and insulin resistance.

It's important to be aware of the potential for interactions with other medications. Other oral antidiabetic medications, MAOI, beta blockers, ACEI, acetylsalicylic acid, anabolic steroids, and sulphonamides may cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), whereas oral contraceptives, thiazides, glucocorticoids, thyroid hormone therapy, sympathomimetics, growth hormone, and danazol may cause hyperglycemia (high blood sugar). Octreotide and lanreotide may either increase or decrease blood sugar level. Beta-blockers can potentially diminish or completely mask the initial warning signs that help you recognize low blood sugar levels.

In some cases, patients with long-standing diabetes and heart disease or a previous stroke may develop heart failure when pioglitazone is combined with insulin. If you experience symptoms like unusual shortness of breath, rapid weight gain, or localized swelling (edema), it is crucial to inform your doctor promptly.
