Description

Biphasic isophane insulin injection I.P. is a medication used to manage diabetes by controlling blood sugar levels. Diabetes is a chronic medical condition characterized by high levels of sugar in the blood, either because the body doesn’t produce enough insulin or because the cells don’t respond to the insulin that is produced. Insulin is a hormone that helps the cells in the body use glucose (sugar) for energy. Biphasic isophane insulin injection I.P. is a combination of two types of insulin – one that works quickly to regulate blood sugar after meals and one that works slowly to maintain blood sugar levels throughout the day.

The first component of Biphasic isophane insulin injection I.P. is a rapid-acting insulin analog. This type of insulin starts working within 15 minutes of injection and peaks within an hour. It helps regulate blood sugar levels after meals, when blood sugar tends to rise due to the digestion of carbohydrates. The second component of Biphasic isophane insulin injection I.P. is a long-acting insulin analog that works over a period of several hours. It helps maintain blood sugar levels in between meals and overnight, when blood sugar tends to drop.

Biphasic isophane insulin injection I.P. is administered by injection, usually into the subcutaneous tissue (the layer of fat just beneath the skin). It can be injected using a syringe or an insulin pen. The dose and timing of the injection may vary depending on the individual’s blood sugar levels, diet, exercise, and other factors. It is important to follow the instructions provided by the healthcare provider.

Biphasic isophane insulin injection I.P. is used to treat type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the body’s immune system attacks and destroys the cells in the pancreas that produce insulin. Type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disorder in which the body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn’t produce enough insulin to regulate blood sugar levels. Both types of diabetes can lead to serious complications if left untreated, such as heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, and nerve damage.

Biphasic isophane insulin injection I.P. is effective in controlling blood sugar levels and preventing complications of diabetes. It can help individuals with diabetes lead a more stable and comfortable life. However, like all medications, it may cause side effects in some people. Common side effects of insulin include hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), weight gain, swelling or itching at the injection site, and allergic reactions. It is important to monitor blood sugar levels regularly and report any side effects to the healthcare provider.
