NovoLog Mix 70/30 is for use in patients with diabetes to control high blood glucose. You should know that NovoLog Mix 70/30 is different from other insulin mixtures because it works fast. So it’s important to take your dose within 15 minutes of a meal. Also, check your blood glucose regularly. Do not use NovoLog Mix 70/30 if your blood glucose is too low or if you are allergic to this medication. Low blood glucose is the most common side effect. If you have been taking another type of insulin, the time at which low blood glucose could occur may be different. Any change in insulin should be made cautiously and only under medical supervision.
Please see important safety information.
