Can injecting 200 units of Tresiba lead to over-dosage?
Patient: Hi, I have been using tresiba 100 units/ml pens and reached the maximum dose. My Dr. Wrote my new script for the 200 units/ml pens. Will I reduce My dosage by half? My Dr prescribed me to inject the same units nightly but the pharmacist said that was double the amount! I m confused! Doctor: hi sirTresiba is a long acting human insulin suggested with personal of highly diabetic conditions it controls your blood sugar better but taking it once a day with be advisable no need of taking up at night time Since it's a longstanding human insulin it may lead to low sugar levels also better to consult the diabetologist about this and get a opinion. make sure that your HB a1c is under control and you have to take insulins according to that. thank you.
