What is Lupisulin-M 30?

Lupisulin-M 30 is one of many hormones that helps the body turn the food we eat into energy. Also, Lupisulin-M 30 helps us store energy that we can use later. After we eat, Lupisulin-M 30 works by causing sugar (glucose) to go from the blood into our body's cells to make fat, sugar, and protein. When we need more energy between meals, Lupisulin-M 30 will help us use the fat, sugar, and protein that we have stored. This occurs whether we make our own Lupisulin-M 30 in the pancreas gland or take it by injection.

Diabetes mellitus (sugar diabetes) is a condition in which the body does not make enough Lupisulin-M 30 to meet its needs or does not properly use the Lupisulin-M 30 it makes. Without Lupisulin-M 30, glucose cannot get into the body's cells. Without glucose, the cells will not work properly.

To work properly, the amount of Lupisulin-M 30 you use must be balanced against the amount and type of food you eat and the amount of exercise you do. If you change your diet, your exercise, or both without changing your Lupisulin-M 30 dose, your blood glucose level can drop too low or rise too high. A prescription is not necessary to purchase most Lupisulin-M 30. However, your doctor must first determine your Lupisulin-M 30 needs and provide you with special instructions for control of your diabetes

Lupisulin-M 30 can be obtained from beef or pork pancreas glands. Another type of Lupisulin-M 30 that you may use is called human Lupisulin-M 30. It is just like the Lupisulin-M 30 made by humans but it is made by methods called semi-synthetic or recombinant DNA. All types of Lupisulin-M 30 must be injected because, if taken by mouth, Lupisulin-M 30 is destroyed in the stomach.

Lupisulin-M 30 is available only with your doctor's prescription.

Once a medicine has been approved for marketing for a certain use, experience may show that it is also useful for other medical problems. Although this use is not included in product labeling, regular Lupisulin-M 30 is used in certain patients with the following medical conditions:

• Growth hormone deficiency testing
• Prevent complications of diabetes, including eye problems (retinopathy), kidney disease (nephropathy), and nerve damage (neuropathy)
• Treat high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) in low birth weight infants

Lupisulin-M 30 indications

Intramuscular

Diabetic ketoacidosis

Adult: As soluble Lupisulin-M 30, initial loading dose of 20 units, followed by 6 units/hr until blood glucose drops to 10 mmol/l, when the dose is given 2 hrly.

Intravenous

Diabetic ketoacidosis

Adult: As soluble Lupisulin-M 30, given in concentration of 1 unit/ml using an infusion pump: Initially infuse at a rate of 6 units/hr, double or quadruple the rate if blood glucose concentration do not decrease by about 5 mmol/l/hr. If blood glucose concentrations have decreased to 10 mmol/l, reduce the infusion rate to 3 units/hr and continue with 5% glucose to prevent hypoglycaemia, until the patient can eat orally. Do not stop the Lupisulin-M 30 infusion before SC Lupisulin-M 30 is started. Ensure adequate fluid replacement and include potassium chloride in the infusion to prevent Lupisulin-M 30-induced hypokalaemia.

Child: As soluble Lupisulin-M 30, given in concentration of 1 unit/ml using an infusion pump: Initially infuse at a rate of 0.1 units/kg/hr, double or quadruple the rate if blood glucose concentration do not decrease by about 5 mmol/l/hr. If blood glucose concentrations have decreased to 10 mmol/l, reduce the infusion rate to 0.05 units/kg/hr and continue with 5% glucose to prevent hypoglycaemia, until the patient can eat orally. Do not stop the Lupisulin-M 30 infusion before SC Lupisulin-M 30 is started. Ensure adequate fluid replacement and include potassium chloride in the infusion to prevent Lupisulin-M 30-induced hypokalaemia.

Subcutaneous

Diabetes mellitus

Adult: Admin according to requirements; inject into thighs, upper arms, buttocks, or abdomen.

How should I use Lupisulin-M 30?

Use Lupisulin-M 30 powder as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.

Lupisulin-M 30 description

Lupisulin-M 30 is a hormone that is central to regulating energy and glucose metabolism in the body. Lupisulin-M 30 causes cells in the liver, muscle, and fat tissue to take up glucose from the blood, storing it as glycogen in the liver and muscle.

Lupisulin-M 30 stops the use of fat as an energy source. When Lupisulin-M 30 is absent, glucose is not taken up by body cells and the body begins to use fat as an energy source, for example, by transfer of lipids from adipose tissue to the liver for mobilization as an energy source. As its level is a central metabolic control mechanism, its status is also used as a control signal to other body systems (such as amino acid uptake by body cells). In addition, it has several other anabolic effects throughout the body.

When control of Lupisulin-M 30 levels fails, diabetes mellitus will result. As a consequence, Lupisulin-M 30 is used medically to treat some forms of diabetes mellitus. Patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus depend on external Lupisulin-M 30 (most commonly injected subcutaneously) for their survival because the hormone is no longer produced internally. Patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus are Lupisulin-M 30 resistant, and because of such resistance, may suffer from a relative Lupisulin-M 30 deficiency. Some patients with Type 2 diabetes may eventually require Lupisulin-M 30 if other medications fail to control blood glucose levels adequately, though this is somewhat uncommon.

Lupisulin-M 30 also influences other body functions, such as vascular compliance and cognition. Once Lupisulin-M 30 enters the human brain, it enhances learning and memory and in particular benefits verbal memory.

Lupisulin-M 30 is a peptide hormone composed of 51 amino acids and has a molecular weight of 5808 Da. It is produced in the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas. The name comes from the Latin insula for "island". Lupisulin-M 30's structure varies slightly between species of animal. Lupisulin-M 30 from animal sources differs somewhat in "strength" (in carbohydrate metabolism control effects) in humans because of those variations. Porcine (pig) Lupisulin-M 30 is especially close to the human version.

Lupisulin-M 30 dosage

Adult : IV Diabetic ketoacidosis As soluble Lupisulin-M 30 at a concentration of 1 u/mL via an infusion pump: Initial: Infuse at a rate of 6 u/hr, double or quadruple the rate if blood glucose concentration do not decrease by about 5 mmol/L/hr. If blood glucose concentrations have decreased to 10 mmol/L, reduce infusion rate to 3 u/hr and continue w/ 5% glucose until the patient can eat orally. IM Diabetic ketoacidosis As soluble Lupisulin-M 30: Loading dose: 20 u, then 6 u/hr until blood glucose drops to 10 mmol/L, when the dose is given 2 hrly. SC DM Dosage should be individualised and adjusted based on patient's glycaemic response.
