Insulatard is a medication used for diabetes mellitus. It acts as a replacement insulin to help lower blood sugar levels in diabetic patients. The main goal of using Insulatard is to prevent complications related to diabetes. It is administered through subcutaneous injections under the skin. The injection sites can be the thigh, abdominal wall, buttocks, or shoulders. It is important to change the injection site for each injection. The typical dosage ranges from 0.3 to 1.0 IU per kilogram of body weight per day. Insulatard can be taken once or twice a day, either on its own or in combination with fast-acting insulin during meal times.

Monitoring blood glucose levels on a regular basis is crucial for determining the most effective dose. Insulatard, a long-acting insulin, begins to lower blood sugar levels around 1½ hours after administration and continues to work for approximately 24 hours. Avoid using it when experiencing hypoglycemia. It is important to always follow the advice and instructions given by your doctor.
