ADMELOG

AbsorptionThe pharmacokinetic profile of a single 0.3 unit/kg dose of ADMELOG administered subcutaneously was evaluated in a study enrolling 30 patients with type 1 diabetes. In this study, the mean observed area under the plasma insulin lispro concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity and peak plasma insulin lispro concentration were 12800 pg∙hr/mL and 5070 pg/mL, respectively. The median time to maximum plasma insulin lispro concentration was 0.83 hours after injection (see Figure 2...

14.1 Overview of Clinical Studies The safety and effectiveness of ADMELOG to improve glycemic control in adult and pediatric patients with diabetes mellitus have been established based on adequate and well-controlled studies of ADMELOG in adult patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, and based on adequate and well-controlled studies of another insulin lispro product, 100 units/mL, in adult and pediatric patients 3 years of age and older with type 1 diabetes mellitus and adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The safety and effectiveness of: ADMELOG were studied in 507 adult p...

ADMELOG is contraindicated: during episodes of hypoglycemia [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ] . in patients who are hypersensitive to insulin lispro or to any of the excipients in ADMELOG [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5) ]. Do not use during episodes of hypoglycemia. ( 4 ) Do not use in patients with hypersensitivity to insulin lispro or any of the excipients in ADMELOG. ( 4 )

Never share an ADMELOG SoloStar disposable prefilled pen or syringe between patients, even if the needle is changed. ( 5.1 ) Hyperglycemia or Hypoglycemia with Changes in Insulin Regimen: Make changes to a patient's insulin regimen (e.g., insulin strength, manufacturer, type, injection site or method of administration) under close medical supervision with increased frequency of blood glucose monitoring. ( 5.2 ) Hypoglycemia: May be life-threatening. Monitor blood glucose and increase monitoring ...
