Nobeglar Injection is a long-acting insulin that provides consistent all-day sugar control. It works like your body's natural insulin. Insulin facilitates reuptake of sugar in muscle and fat cells and also suppresses the production of sugar in the liver.
Nobeglar 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.
Nobeglar Injection is a long-acting, man-made insulin that is very similar to human insulin.

Nobeglar Injection should be injected subcutaneously just below the skin. Your healthcare provider will train you on the correct injection method and areas (abdomen, thighs, arms, hips, or buttocks) where you can inject it. It's essential to change the injection site within the chosen area for every dose to avoid complications like lipodystrophy, irritation, and pain. After one to two weeks, consider moving to another body area as advised by your healthcare provider.
Nobeglar Injection is long-acting and typically prescribed once daily. However, you can take it at any time of the day, aiming to take it at the same time each day for consistency.
