Treatment of diabetes mellitus in adults.
Administer subcutaneously in the upper arm, thigh or abdominal wall. A subcutaneous injection into the abdominal wall results in a faster absorption than from other injection sites. Inject SC once or twice daily with any main meal Administer a rapid- or a short-acting insulin at other meals if needed Patients with type 1 diabetes, will generally require a rapid- or short-acting insulin at meals when insulin degludec/insulin aspart 70/30 is not administered for optimal glucose control
Subcutaneous Prefilled pen Insulin degludec 70 units/insulin aspart 30 units per mL (ie, 100 units/mL for combination) Starting dose in insulin naïve patients Type 1 diabetes mellitus: One third to one half of the total daily insulin dose; as a general rule; the remainder of the total daily insulin dose should be administered as a short- or rapid-acting insulin divided between each daily meal; 0.2-0.4 units/kg can be used to calculate the initial total daily insulin dose in insulin-naïve patients with type 1 diabetes Type 2 diabetes mellitus: 10 units SC once daily Starting dose in patients with types 1 or 2 diabetes on a once or twice daily premix or self-mix insulin alone or as part of a regimen of multiple daily injections Start insulin degludec/insulin aspart 70/30 at the same unit dose and injection schedule as the premix or self-mix insulin In patients also using short- or rapid-acting insulin at mealtimes, continue the short- or rapid-acting insulin at the same dose for meals NOT covered by degludec/insulin aspart 70/30 Starting dose in patients with types 1 or 2 diabetes on a once or twice daily basal insulin alone or as part of a regimen of multiple daily injections Patients with T2DM switching from regimen that includes only a once- or twice-daily basal insulin, start insulin degludec/insulin aspart 70/30 at the same unit dose and injection schedule For patients switching from once-daily basal insulin to once-daily insulin degludec/insulin aspart 70/30, monitor blood glucose after starting therapy due to the rapid-acting insulin component In patients switching from a multiple daily injections regimen that includes a basal and short- or rapid-acting insulin at mealtimes, start insulin degludec/insulin aspart 70/30 once daily with the main meal at the same unit dose as the basal insulin; continue the short- or rapid-acting insulin at the same dose for meals NOT covered by insulin degludec/insulin aspart 70/30 Dose Adjustment Individualize and titrate the dose based on the patient’s metabolic needs, blood glucose monitoring results, and glycemic control goal Adjust dose according to blood glucose measurements before breakfast (fasting) The recommended days between dose increases is 3-4 days Dose adjustments may be needed with changes in physical activity, changes in meal patterns (ie, macronutrient content or timing of food intake), changes in renal or hepatic function, or during acute illness to minimize the risk of hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia If a dose of insulin degludec/insulin aspart 70/30 is missed, the next dose should be taken with the next main meal of that day and thereafter resume the usual dosing schedule; patients should not take an extra dose to make up for a missed dose
Safety and efficacy not established
Renal impairment: Dose adjustments may be needed.
Hypersensitivity to the active substances or to any of the excipients.
Insulin degludec and insulin aspart binds specifically to the human insulin receptor and results in the same pharmacological effects as human insulin. The blood glucose-lowering effect of insulin is due to the facilitated uptake of glucose following the binding of insulin to receptors on muscle and fat cells and to the simultaneous inhibition of glucose output from the liver.
Hypoglycaemia Omission of a meal or unplanned strenuous physical exercise may lead to hypoglycaemia. Hypoglycaemia may occur if the insulin dose is too high in relation to the insulin requirement. Concomitant illness, especially infections and fever, usually increases the patient's insulin requirement. Concomitant diseases in the kidney, liver or diseases affecting the adrenal, pituitary or thyroid gland may require changes in the insulin dose. Hyperglycaemia Administration of rapid-acting insulin is recommended in situations with severe hyperglycaemia. Inadequate dosing and/or discontinuation of treatment in patients requiring insulin may lead to hyperglycaemia and potentially to diabetic ketoacidosis. Furthermore, concomitant illness, especially infections, may lead to hyperglycaemia and thereby cause an increased insulin requirement. Eye disorder Intensification of insulin therapy with abrupt improvement in glycaemic control may be associated with temporary worsening of diabetic retinopathy, while long-term improved glycaemic control decreases the risk of progression of diabetic retinopathy. Avoidance of accidental mix-ups Patients must be instructed to always check the insulin label before each injection to avoid accidental mix-ups between this and other insulin products. Older patients (> 65 years old) Ryzodeg can be used in older patients. Glucose-monitoring is to be intensified and the insulin dose adjusted on an individual basis. Paediatric population This Insulin has been administered to children and adolescents up to 18 years of age for the investigation of pharmacokinetic properties. Safety and efficacy have not been investigated in children and adolescents.
