How To Use This Medicine:

Insulin Lispro doses will be different for every user. Work with your healthcare provider to personalize your insulin dose and treatment.

Insulin Lispro should be administered 5-10 minutes before eating a meal. Peak time for this insulin is 30 to 90 minutes with an effective duration lasting between 3-5 hours.* Do not use Insulin Lispro on an empty stomach, because this can increase your risk of hypoglycemia.

Check your blood glucose levels regularly to ensure this medication is working correctly. The most common side effect is low blood glucose levels. Monitor for symptoms of low blood sugar, and report difficulties in keeping your blood glucose levels within your target range to your prescriber. Follow the instructions given by your pharmacist or prescriber on preparing your vial for use. Be sure you understand all instructions prior to using. If you have any questions, speak to your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist.

Always double-check both the concentration (strength) of your insulin and your dose. Concentration and dose are not the same. The dose is how many units of insulin you will use. The concentration tells how many units of insulin are in each milliliter (mL), such as 100 units/mL (U-100), but this does not mean you will use 100 units at a time.
