Product introduction
Glaritus 100IU/ml Injection can be prescribed alone or in combination with fast-acting insulin or other diabetes medicines. Your doctor or nurse will teach you how to inject it under the skin correctly. You should use this medicine regularly per the dose advised to get the maximum benefit. If you stop taking it, your blood sugar levels may rise very high, which may put you at risk of serious complications. It is only a part of the treatment program that should include a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight reduction, as your doctor advises.
This medicine's most common side effect is low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia). To prevent this, it is important to inject only the correct dose of medicine, have regular meals, and monitor your blood sugar levels regularly. Drinking excessive alcohol can also lead to a fall in your blood sugar levels. Other common side effects include peripheral edema, lipodystrophy, allergic reactions, injection site reactions, itching, rashes, and weight gain.
Do not use this medicine when you have low blood sugar levels. Before starting the treatment, inform your doctor if you have ever had kidney, liver, or heart problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using it.
Uses of Glaritus Injection
Benefits of Glaritus Injection
Glaritus 100IU/ml Injection is a man-made form of insulin that helps to control high blood glucose (sugar) levels. It replaces the insulin that is usually produced in the body. This allows the glucose into your cells so your body can use it for energy. Lowering blood sugar levels helps reduce the risk of getting any of the serious complications of diabetes, such as kidney damage, eye damage, nerve problems, and loss of limbs.
Side effects of Glaritus Injection
- Edema (swelling)
- Allergic reaction
- Injection site reactions (pain, swelling, redness)
- Lipodystrophy (skin thickening or pits at the injection site)
- Itching
- Rash

Quick tips
- Glaritus 100IU/ml Injection is injected under the skin. It needs to be injected once daily, at the same time every day.
- Injection below the skin of the abdomen results in faster absorption than other injection sites.
- Injection sites must be rotated to prevent hard lumps from developing at one site.
- Exercise regularly, eat a healthy diet, and take your other diabetes medicines (if prescribed) alongside.
- Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) is a common side effect. Hence, regular monitoring of blood sugar levels is required while taking this medicine.
- Always carry some high-sugar food, such as sugar candy or glucose candy, fruit juice, and glucose, with you so that you can take it when you experience hypoglycemia symptoms such as cold sweats, cool, pale skin, tremors, weakness, and anxiety.
- Opened vials/cartridges can be kept at room temperature for up to 4 weeks, while unopened vials must be stored in the refrigerator (2°C–8°C).
- Do not use if the preparation is no longer clear and colorless or if it contains particles.
