Dosage and administration

2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION See Full Prescribing Information for important administration instructions. ( 2.1 , 2.2 ) Subcutaneous Injection ( 2.2 ): Administer LYUMJEV U-100 or U-200 at the start of a meal or within 20 minutes after starting a meal subcutaneously into the abdomen, upper arm, thigh, or buttocks. Rotate injection sites within the same region to reduce risk of lipodystrophy and localized cutaneous amyloidosis. Should generally be used in regimens with an intermediate or long-acting insulin. Continuous subcutaneous infusion (Insulin Pump) ( 2.2 ): Refer to the insulin infusion pump user manual to see if LYUMJEV can be used. Use in accordance with the insulin pump instructions for use. Administer LYUMJEV U-100 by continuous subcutaneous infusion using an insulin pump in a region recommended in the instructions from the pump manufacturer. Rotate infusion sites within the same region to reduce the risk of lipodystrophy and localized cutaneous amyloidosis. Do not administer LYUMJEV U-200 by continuous subcutaneous infusion. Intravenous Infusion ( 2.2 ): Administer LYUMJEV U-100 intravenously only under medical supervision. DO NOT administer LYUMJEV U-200 by intravenous infusion. Dilute LYUMJEV U-100 to a concentration of 1 unit/mL. Individualize and adjust the dosage of LYUMJEV based on the patient's metabolic needs, glucose monitoring results, and glycemic control goal. ( 2.3 ) Dose adjustments may be needed when switching from another insulin, with changes in physical activity, changes in concomitant medications, changes in meal patterns (i.e., amount and type of food, timing of food intake), changes in renal or hepatic function, or during acute illness. ( 2.3 ) 2.1 Important Administration Instructions Always check insulin labels before administration [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] . Inspect LYUMJEV visually before use. It should appear clear and colorless. Do not use LYUMJEV if particulate matter and discoloration is seen. Use LYUMJEV prefilled pens with caution in patients with visual impairment that may rely on audible clicks to dial their dose. Do not perform dose conversion when using any LYUMJEV U-100 or U-200 prefilled pens. The dose window of LYUMJEV prefilled pens shows the number of units of LYUMJEV to be delivered and no conversion is needed . Do not transfer LYUMJEV U-200 from the prefilled pen to a syringe for administration [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] . Do not mix LYUMJEV with any other insulin products. Do not administer LYUMJEV U-200 using continuous subcutaneous infusion insulin pump. Do not administer LYUMJEV U-200 intravenously. 2.2 Route of Administration Instructions Subcutaneous Injection for LYUMJEV U-100 or U-200 Administer LYUMJEV at the start of a meal or within 20 minutes after starting a meal subcutaneously into the abdomen, upper arm, thigh, or buttocks. Rotate injection sites within the same region from one injection to the next to reduce the risk of lipodystrophy and localized cutaneous amyloidosis. Do not inject into areas of lipodystrophy or localized cutaneous amyloidosis [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 , 6.2 )]. LYUMJEV given by subcutaneous injection should generally be used in regimens with intermediate or long-acting insulin. The LYUMJEV U-100 KwikPen, LYUMJEV U-100 Tempo Pen, and LYUMJEV U-200 KwikPen each dial in 1 unit increments and deliver a maximum dose of 60 units per injection. The LYUMJEV U-100 Junior KwikPen dials in 0.5 unit increments and delivers a maximum dose of 30 units per injection. Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion (Insulin Pump) for LYUMJEV U-100 Only Do not administer LYUMJEV U-200 using an insulin pump. Refer to the continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion pump user manual to see if LYUMJEV can be used with the insulin pump. Use LYUMJEV in accordance with the insulin pump system's instructions for use. Administer LYUMJEV U-100 by continuous subcutaneous infusion in a region recommended in the instructions from the pump manufacturer.…

Warnings

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Never share a LYUMJEV prefilled pen or cartridge between patients, even if the needle is changed. ( 5.1 ) Hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia with changes in insulin regimen: Make changes to a patient's insulin regimen (e.g., insulin strength, manufacturer, type, injection site or method of administration) under close medical supervision with increased frequency of glucose monitoring. ( 5.2 ) Hypoglycemia: May be life-threatening. Increase frequency of glucose monitoring with changes to: insulin dosage, co-administered glucose lowering medications, meal pattern, physical activity; and in patients with renal impairment or hepatic impairment or hypoglycemia unawareness. ( 5.3 ) Hypoglycemia due to medication errors: Accidental mix-ups between insulin products can occur. Instruct patients to check insulin labels before injection. Do not transfer LYUMJEV U-200 from the LYUMJEV KwikPen to a syringe as overdosage and severe hypoglycemia can result. ( 5.4 ) Hypokalemia: May be life-threatening. Monitor potassium levels in patients at risk for hypokalemia and treat if indicated. ( 5.5 ) Hypersensitivity reactions: Severe, life-threatening, generalized allergy, including anaphylaxis, can occur. Discontinue LYUMJEV, monitor, and treat if indicated. ( 5.6 ) Fluid retention and heart failure with concomitant use of thiazolidinediones (TZDs): Observe for signs and symptoms of heart failure; consider dosage reduction or discontinuation of TZD if heart failure occurs. ( 5.7 ) Hyperglycemia and ketoacidosis due to insulin pump device malfunction: Monitor glucose and administer LYUMJEV by subcutaneous injection if pump malfunction occurs. ( 5.8 ) 5.1 Never Share a LYUMJEV Prefilled Pen, Cartridge, or Syringe Between Patients LYUMJEV prefilled pens or cartridges should never be shared between patients, even if the needle is changed. Patients using LYUMJEV vials must never share needles or syringes with another person. Sharing poses a risk for transmission of blood-borne pathogens. 5.2 Hyperglycemia or Hypoglycemia with Changes in Insulin Regimen Changes in an insulin regimen (e.g., insulin, insulin strength, manufacturer, type, injection site or method of administration) may affect glycemic control and predispose to hypoglycemia [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.3 )] or hyperglycemia. Repeated insulin injections into areas of lipodystrophy or localized cutaneous amyloidosis have been reported to result in hyperglycemia; and a sudden change in the injection site (to an unaffected area) has been reported to result in hypoglycemia [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] . Make any changes to a patient's insulin regimen under close medical supervision with increased frequency of blood glucose monitoring. Advise patients who have repeatedly injected into areas of lipodystrophy or localized cutaneous amyloidosis to change the injection site to unaffected areas and closely monitor for hypoglycemia. For patients with type 2 diabetes, dosage adjustments of concomitant anti-diabetic products may be needed. 5.3 Hypoglycemia Hypoglycemia is the most common adverse reaction associated with insulins, including LYUMJEV [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] . Severe hypoglycemia can cause seizures, may lead to unconsciousness, may be life-threatening, or cause death. Hypoglycemia can impair concentration ability and reaction time; this may place an individual and others at risk in situations where these abilities are important (e.g., driving or operating other machinery). LYUMJEV, or any insulin, should not be used during episodes of hypoglycemia [see Contraindications ( 4 )] . Hypoglycemia can happen suddenly and symptoms may differ in each individual and change over time in the same individual. Symptomatic awareness of hypoglycemia may be less pronounced in patients with longstanding diabetes, in patients with diabetic nerve disease, in patients using medications that block the sympathetic nervous system (e.g., beta-blockers) [see Drug Interactions ( …

Pregnancy

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Published studies with insulin lispro used during pregnancy have not reported an association between insulin lispro and the induction of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes (see Data) . There are risks to the mother and fetus associated with poorly controlled diabetes in pregnancy (see Clinical Considerations). Pregnant rats and rabbits were exposed to insulin lispro in animal reproduction studies during organogenesis. No adverse effects on embryo/fetal viability or morphology were observed in offspring of rats exposed to insulin lispro at a dose approximately 3 times the human subcutaneous dose of 1 unit insulin lispro/kg/day. No adverse effects on embryo/fetal development were observed in offspring of rabbits exposed to insulin lispro at doses up to approximately 0.2 times the human subcutaneous dose of 1 unit/kg/day (see Data) . The estimated background risk of major birth defects is 6% to 10% in women with pre-gestational diabetes with a HbA 1c >7 and has been reported to be as high as 20% to 25% in women with a HbA 1c >10. The estimated background risk of miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Clinical Considerations Disease-associated Maternal and/or Embryo-Fetal Risk Poorly controlled diabetes in pregnancy increases the maternal risk for diabetic ketoacidosis, pre-eclampsia, spontaneous abortions, preterm delivery, and delivery complications. Poorly controlled diabetes increases the fetal risk for major birth defects, stillbirth, and macrosomia related morbidity. Data Human Data Published data from retrospective studies and meta-analyses do not report an association with insulin lispro and major birth defects, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes when insulin lispro is used during pregnancy. However, these studies cannot definitely establish or exclude the absence of any risk because of methodological limitations including small sample size, selection bias, confounding by unmeasured factors, and some lacking comparator groups. Animal Data Animal reproduction studies have not been performed with LYUMJEV. However, subcutaneous reproduction and teratology studies have been conducted with insulin lispro. In a combined fertility and embryo-fetal development study, female rats were given subcutaneous insulin lispro injections of 1, 5, and 20 units/kg/day (0.2, 0.8, and 3 times the human subcutaneous dose of 1 unit insulin lispro/kg/day, based on units/body surface area, respectively) from 2 weeks prior to cohabitation through Gestation Day 19. There were no adverse effects on female fertility, implantation, or fetal viability and morphology. However, fetal growth retardation was produced at the 20 units/kg/day-dose as indicated by decreased fetal weight and an increased incidence of fetal runts/litter. In an embryo-fetal development study in pregnant rabbits, insulin lispro doses of 0.1, 0.25, and 0.75 unit/kg/day (0.03, 0.08, and 0.2 times the human subcutaneous dose of 1 unit insulin lispro/kg/day, based on units/body surface area, respectively) were injected subcutaneously on Gestation Days 7 through 19. There were no adverse effects on fetal viability, weight, and morphology at any dose.
