10 THIS LILLY HUMAN INSULIN ANALOG MIXTURE IS DIFFERENT FROM
11 OTHER INSULIN MIXTURES IN THAT ITS ONSET OF ACTION IS VERY
12 QUICK. THE QUICK ONSET OF ACTION MEANS THAT YOU SHOULD
13 TAKE YOUR DOSE OF HUMALOG
14 PROTAMINE SUSPENSION AND 25% INSULIN LISPRO INJECTION, [rDNA
15 ORIGIN]) WITHIN 15 MINUTES BEFORE YOU EAT.
16 ANY CHANGE OF INSULIN SHOULD BE MADE CAUTIOUSLY AND ONLY
17 UNDER MEDICAL SUPERVISION. CHANGES IN STRENGTH,
18 MANUFACTURER, TYPE (E.G., REGULAR, NPH, ANALOG), SPECIES (BEEF,
19 PORK, BEEF-PORK, HUMAN), OR METHOD OF MANUFACTURE (rDNA
20 VERSUS ANIMAL-SOURCE INSULIN) MAY RESULT IN THE NEED FOR A
21 CHANGE IN THE TIMING OR DOSAGE OF HUMALOG Mix75/25.
22 PATIENTS TAKING HUMALOG Mix75/25 MAY REQUIRE A CHANGE IN
23 DOSAGE FROM THAT USED WITH OTHER INSULINS. IF AN ADJUSTMENT
24 IS NEEDED, IT MAY OCCUR WITH THE FIRST DOSE OR DURING THE
25 FIRST SEVERAL WEEKS OR MONTHS.
26 TO OBTAIN AN ACCURATE DOSE, CAREFULLY READ AND FOLLOW
27 THE "DISPOSABLE INSULIN DELIVERY DEVICE USER MANUAL" AND
28 THIS "INFORMATION FOR THE PATIENT" INSERT BEFORE USING THIS
29 PRODUCT.
30 BEFORE EACH INJECTION, YOU SHOULD PRIME THE PEN, A
31 NECESSARY STEP TO MAKE SURE THE PEN IS READY TO DOSE.
32 PRIMING THE PEN IS IMPORTANT TO CONFIRM THAT INSULIN COMES
33 OUT WHEN YOU PUSH THE INJECTION BUTTON AND TO REMOVE AIR
34 THAT MAY COLLECT IN THE INSULIN CARTRIDGE DURING NORMAL
35 USE. IF YOU DO NOT PRIME, YOU MAY RECEIVE TOO MUCH OR TOO
36 LITTLE INSULIN (see also INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSULIN PEN USE section).

38 Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas, a large gland that lies near the stomach. This
39 hormone is necessary for the body's correct use of food, especially sugar. Diabetes occurs when
40 the pancreas does not make enough insulin to meet your body's needs.
41 To control your diabetes, your doctor has prescribed injections of insulin products to keep your
42 blood glucose at a near-normal level. You have been instructed to test your blood and/or urine
43 regularly for glucose. Studies have shown that some chronic complications of diabetes such as
44 eye disease, kidney disease, and nerve disease can be significantly reduced if the blood sugar is
45 maintained as close to normal as possible. The American Diabetes Association recommends that
46 if your pre-meal glucose levels are consistently above 130 mg/dL, bedtime glucose levels are
