Levemir Flexpen 100iu/ml 3ml 5’s

Levemir Flexpen 100iu/ml 3ml 5’s — Levemir® is a modern insulin (insulin analogue) with a long-acting effect. Modern insulin products are improved versions of human insulin.

In treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, Levemir® may also be used in combination with tablets for diabetes and/or with injectable anti-diabetic products, other than insulin. Levemir® has a long and steady blood-sugar-lowering action within 3 to 4 hours after injection. Levemir® provides up to 24 hours of basal insulin coverage.
