Novolog Mix 70/30 Dosage and Administration

Important Administration Information

• Always check insulin labels before administration [see Warnings and Precautions (5.4)]. • Inject Novolog Mix 70/30 subcutaneously in the abdominal region, buttocks, thigh, or upper arm. • Administer the dose within 15 minutes before meal initiation. For patients with type 2 diabetes, the dose may also be given after meal initiation. • Rotate injection sites within the same region from one injection to the next to reduce the risk of lipodystrophy [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. • Inspect Novolog Mix 70/30 visually before use. It should appear uniformly white and cloudy. Do not use it if it looks clear or if it contains solid particles. • Novolog Mix 70/30 must be resuspended immediately before use. Resuspension is easier when the insulin has reached room temperature. • When using the vial, roll the vial gently in hands in a horizontal position 10 times until the suspension appears uniformly white and cloudy. Inject immediately. • When using the FlexPen, roll the FlexPen gently between hands in a horizontal position 10 times. Then, turn the FlexPen upside down so that the glass ball moves from one end of the reservoir to the other 10 times until the suspension appears uniformly white and cloudy. Inject immediately. • Do not administer Novolog Mix 70/30 intravenously or use in insulin infusion pumps. • Do not mix Novolog Mix 70/30 with any other insulins.

Dosage Information

• Novolog Mix 70/30 is typically dosed twice-daily (with each dose intended to cover 2 meals or a meal and a snack). • Individualize and adjust the dosage of Novolog Mix 70/30 based on the individual's metabolic needs, blood glucose monitoring results and glycemic control goal. • Dosage adjustments may be needed with changes in physical activity, changes in meal patterns (i.e., macronutrient content or timing of food intake), changes in renal or hepatic function or during acute illness [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) and Use in Specific Populations (8.6, 8.7)]. • Dosage adjustment may be needed when switching from another insulin to Novolog Mix 70/30 [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)].

Dosage Adjustment Due to Drug Interactions

• Dosage adjustment may be needed when Novolog Mix 70/30 is coadministered with certain drugs [see Drug Interactions (7)].

Contraindications

Novolog Mix 70/30 is contraindicated

• During episodes of hypoglycemia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)] • In patients with hypersensitivity to Novolog Mix 70/30 or one of its excipients [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5)]

Overdosage

Excess insulin administration may cause hypoglycemia and hypokalemia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3,5.6)]. Mild episodes of hypoglycemia usually can be treated with oral glucose. Adjustments in drug dosage, meal patterns, or exercise, may be needed. More severe episodes with coma, seizure, or neurologic impairment may be treated with intramuscular/subcutaneous glucagon or concentrated intravenous glucose. Sustained carbohydrate intake and observation may be necessary because hypoglycemia may recur after apparent clinical recovery. Hypokalemia must be corrected appropriately.

• 10 mL NovoLog® Mix 70/30 vial • insulin syringe and needle • alcohol swab

Preparing your NovoLog® Mix 70/30 dose:

• Wash your hands with soap and water. • Before you start to prepare your injection, check the NovoLog® Mix 70/30 label to make sure that you are taking the right type of insulin. This is especially important if you use more than 1 type of insulin. • NovoLog® Mix 70/30 should look white and cloudy after mixing.

If you wait to inject your dose, the insulin will need to be mixed again. • Do not use NovoLog® Mix 70/30 past the expiration date printed on the label.

Step 1: If you are using a new vial, pull off the tamper-resistant cap (See Figure A).

Step 2: Wipe the rubber stopper with an alcohol swab (See Figure B).

Step 3: Roll the Novolog Mix 70/30 vial between your hands 10 times. Keep the vial in a horizontal (flat) position (See Figure C). Roll the vial between your hands until the NovoLog® Mix 70/30 looks white and cloudy. Do not shake the vial.

Step 4: Hold the syringe with the needle pointing up. Pull down on the plunger until the black tip reaches the line for the number of units for your prescribed dose (See Figure D).

Step 5: Push the needle through the rubber stopper of the NovoLog® Mix 70/30 vial (See Figure E).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

NovoLog® Mix 70/30 FlexPen®

Read the following instructions carefully before you start using your NovoLog® Mix 70/30 FlexPen® and each time you get a refill. There may be new information. You should read the instructions even if you have used Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen before.

Do not share your Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen with other people, even if the needle has been changed. You may give other people a serious infection, or get a serious infection from them.

Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen is a disposable dial-a-dose insulin pen. You can select doses from 1 to 60 units in increments of 1 unit. Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen is designed to be used with NovoFine®, NovoFine® Plus or NovoTwist® needles.

Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen should not be used by people who are blind or have severe visual problems without the help of a person who has good eyesight and who is trained to use the Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen the right way.

Getting ready

Make sure you have the following items:

• Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen • New NovoFine, NovoFine Plus or NovoTwist needle • Alcohol swab

Preparing your Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen

• Wash your hands with soap and water. • Before you start to prepare your injection, check the label to make sure that you are taking the right type of insulin. This is especially important if you take more than 1 type of insulin. Novolog Mix 70/30 should look cloudy after mixing.

Before your first injection with a new Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen you must mix the insulin:

A. Let the insulin reach room temperature before you use it. This makes it easier to mix.

Pull off the pen cap (see diagram A).

B. Roll the pen between your palms 10 times - it is important that the pen is kept horizontal (see diagram B).

C. Then gently move the pen up and down ten times between position 1 and 2 as shown, so the glass ball moves from one end of the cartridge to the other (see diagram C).

 Repeat rolling and moving the pen until the liquid appears white and cloudy.

For every following injection move the pen up and down between positions 1 and 2 at least ten times until the liquid appears white and cloudy.

After mixing, complete all the following steps of the injection right away. If there is a delay, the insulin will need to be mixed again.

Wipe the rubber stopper with an alcohol swab.

Δ Before you inject, there must be at least 12 units of insulin left in the cartridge to make sure the remaining insulin is evenly mixed. If there are less than 12 units left, use a new Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen.

Attaching the needle

D. Remove the protective tab from a disposable needle.

Screw the needle tightly onto your Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen. It is important that the needle is put on straight (see diagram D).

Never place a disposable needle on your Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen until you are ready to take your injection. 

  

E. Pull off the big outer needle cap (see diagram E).

F. Pull off the inner needle cap and dispose of it (see diagram F).

  Δ Always use a new needle for each injection to help ensure sterility and prevent blocked needles. Do not reuse or share your needles or syringes with other people. You may give other people a serious infection, or get a serious infection from them.

Δ Be careful not to bend or damage the needle before use.

Δ To reduce the risk of a needle stick, never put the inner needle cap back on the needle.

Giving the airshot before each injection

Before each injection small amounts of air may collect in the cartridge during normal use. To avoid injecting air and to make sure you take the right dose of insulin:

G. Turn the dose selector to select 2 units (see diagram G).

H. Hold your Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen with the needle pointing up. Tap the cartridge gently with your finger a few times to make any air bubbles collect at the top of the cartridge (see diagram H).

I. Keep the needle pointing upwards, press the push-button all the way in (see diagram I). The dose selector returns to 0.

A drop of insulin should appear at the needle tip. If not, change the needle and repeat the procedure no more than 6 times.

If you do not see a drop of insulin after 6 times, do not use the Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen and contact Novo Nordisk at 1-800-727-6500.

A small air bubble may remain at the needle tip, but it will not be injected.

Selecting your dose

Check and make sure that the dose selector is set at 0.

J. Turn the dose selector to the number of units you need to inject. The pointer should line up with your dose.

The dose can be corrected either up or down by turning the dose selector in either direction until the correct dose lines up with the pointer (see diagram J). When turning the dose selector, be careful not to press the push-button as insulin will come out.

You cannot select a dose larger than the number of units left in the cartridge.

You will hear a click for every single unit dialed. Do not set the dose by counting the number of clicks you hear.

Δ Do not use the cartridge scale printed on the cartridge to measure your dose of insulin.

Giving the injection

• Do the injection exactly as shown to you by your healthcare provider. Your healthcare provider should tell you if you need to pinch the skin before injecting. Wipe the skin with an alcohol swab and let the area dry. • Novolog Mix 70/30 can be injected under the skin (subcutaneously) of your stomach area, buttocks, upper legs (thighs), or upper arms. • For each injection, change (rotate) your injection site within the area of skin that you use. Do not use the same injection site for each injection.

K. Insert the needle into your skin.

Inject the dose by pressing the push-button all the way in until the 0 lines up with the pointer (see diagram K). Be careful only to push the button when injecting.

Turning the dose selector will not inject insulin.

L. Keep the needle in the skin for at least 6 seconds, and keep the push-button pressed all the way in until the needle has been pulled out from the skin (see diagram L). This will make sure that the full dose has been given.

You may see a drop of insulin at the needle tip. This is normal and has no effect on the dose you just received. If blood appears after you take the needle out of your skin, press the injection site lightly with an alcohol swab. Do not rub the area.

After the injection

Do not recap the needle. Recapping can lead to a needle stick injury. Remove the needle from the Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen after each injection and dispose of it. This helps to prevent infection, leakage of insulin, and will help to make sure you inject the right dose of insulin. If you do not have a sharps container, carefully slip the needle into the outer needle cap. Safely remove the needle and throw it away as soon as you can.

• Put your used Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen and needles in a FDA-cleared sharps disposal container right away after use. Do not throw away (dispose of) loose needles and Pens in your household trash. • If you do not have a FDA-cleared sharps disposal container, you may use a household container that is: • made of a heavy-duty plastic • can be closed with a tight-fitting, puncture-resistant lid, without sharps being able to come out • upright and stable during use • leak-resistant • properly labeled to warn of hazardous waste inside the container • When your sharps disposal container is almost full, you will need to follow your community guidelines for the right way to dispose of your sharps disposal container. There may be state or local laws about how you should throw away used needles and syringes. For more information about the safe sharps disposal, and for specific information about sharps disposal in the state that you live in, go to the FDA’s website at: http://www.fda.gov/safesharpsdisposal.

Do not dispose of your used sharps disposal container in your household trash unless your community guidelines permit this. Do not recycle your used sharps disposal container.

The Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen prevents the cartridge from being completely emptied. It is designed to deliver 300 units.

M. Put the pen cap on the Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen and store the Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen without the needle attached (see diagram M). Storing without the needle attached helps prevent leaking, blocking of the needle, and air from entering the Pen.

How should I store Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen?

      • Store unused Novolog Mix 70/30 FlexPen in the refrigerator at 36°F to 46°F (2°C to 8°C). • Store the FlexPen you are currently using out of the refrigerator below 86°F (30°C) for up to 14 days. • Do not freeze Novolog Mix 70/30.
