Humalog Kwikpen (Generic name: insulin lispro injection (rDNA ORIGIN)) is an approved insulin analog used to treat type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes in adults. Like other insulin products, it works by helping sugar (glucose) get into cells. Insulin Lispro starts working faster and lasts for shorter duration of action than human regular insulin. Therefore, in patients with type 1 diabetes, Humalog insulin should be used in regimens that include a longer-acting insulin (NPH). However, in patients with type 2 diabetes, Humalog insulin may be used without a longer-acting insulin when used in combination therapy with sulfonylurea agents. Humalog insulin is only part of a complete program of diabetes treatment that may also include diet, exercise, weight control, dental care, and regular blood sugar tests. Proper control of diabetes may also lessen your risk of a heart attack or stroke. Use Humalog pen exactly as it was prescribed for you.

If you experience any severe side effect such as rash, seizures, unconsciousness or symptoms of a serious allergic reaction (e.g., difficult breathing, itching, rash, swelling of face or throat), please inform your doctor immediately.
