ERLY PEN

Erly Prefilled Pen is an important medicine specifically designed to effectively lower blood sugar levels in adults diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Achieving proper blood sugar control with this medication helps significantly to prevent serious and debilitating complications of diabetes, such as kidney damage and blindness. Furthermore, proper management of diabetes also considerably helps to lower your chances of experiencing a heart attack or a stroke.

Erly Prefilled Pen belongs to the GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide) group of diabetes medicines. It works by actively helping your body produce its own insulin and by simultaneously reducing appetite, which can contribute to weight management. Notably, it also helps to reduce weight in some individuals. This medicine should be stored in a refrigerator until you are ready to use it, but it is crucial not to freeze it.

This medication is normally injected under the skin once daily. The specific dose you will need will depend on your individual medical condition and what other diabetes medicines you are currently taking. You have the flexibility to use it at any time of the day, with or without food, but for the most consistent benefits, it is advisable to try and use it at the same time each day. Your doctor or nurse will provide clear instructions on how and where to inject the medicine, and it is essential to follow these instructions carefully.

It is imperative that you do not stop taking this medicine without first talking to your doctor. If you do discontinue it, your blood sugar levels may unfortunately increase, putting you at a significant risk of serious complications. Always remember that this injection is only one part of a comprehensive treatment program, which should also include a healthy diet and regular exercise as advised by your doctor. Your overall lifestyle plays a very significant role in effectively controlling your diabetes.

The most common side effects that may occur with this medicine include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, a decreased appetite, indigestion, and constipation. It can also potentially lead to low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia), especially if you are also taking other medicines for diabetes treatment, such as insulin or sulphonylureas. To help prevent hypoglycemia, it is important to have regular meals and to always carry a fast-acting source of glucose with you, such as sugary candy or glucose candy.

Before using Erly Prefilled Pen, you should let your doctor know if you have any pre-existing pancreas or stomach problems, severe dehydration (which indicates a significant loss of body water), or diabetic ketoacidosis (a serious complication of diabetes characterized by too much acid and ketones in your blood), as this medicine may not be suitable for you. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor before using this medicine. If you experience blurred vision, dizziness, or drowsiness due to extremely low or high blood sugar levels, you must not drive, operate machinery, or perform any activity that requires alertness or clear vision until you are absolutely sure you can do them safely.
