Use Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch exactly as directed by your doctor. It is injected under the skin once a week, on the same day each week if possible. Eat the recommended meal plan. Exercise as recommended. Monitor your blood sugar as recommended. Do not stop or change the quantity of insulin you take unless your doctor tells you to.

The most frequent side effect of Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch is low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), and this can cause sweating, shakiness, dizziness, hunger, headache, or confusion. If this happens, test your blood sugar and treat it right away. Other common side effects include hypersensitivity, injection site reactions, itching, rash, and weight gain. If any of the side effects continue or are bothersome, tell your doctor.

Do not use Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch if you are allergic to insulin icodec or any of the ingredients.

This combination may increase the risk of heart failure in some people.

Benefits of Awiqli Pre-filled Pen

Treatment of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch helps improve blood sugar control in adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus when used together with mealtime (bolus) insulin. It provides steady basal insulin activity throughout the week with a once-weekly injection to help maintain blood sugar levels between meals and overnight.

Treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus
Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch helps improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus when the body does not produce enough insulin or cannot use it effectively. It provides steady glucose-lowering activity throughout the week with a once-weekly injection. This helps maintain blood sugar levels within the target range. Controlling blood sugar levels may help reduce symptoms of diabetes, such as excessive thirst, frequent urination, and tiredness.

How to use Awiqli Pre-filled Pen

Your doctor or nurse will use this device to give medicine. You or your care giver may be taught on how to use this device at home.

How Awiqli Pre-filled Pen works

Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch is a long-acting basal insulin analogue that provides continuous glucose-lowering activity for one week after a single subcutaneous injection. It works by binding to insulin receptors, which promotes the uptake of glucose into muscle and fat cells while reducing glucose production by the liver. This helps maintain stable blood glucose levels in adults with diabetes mellitus.

Quick tips

Administer your injection on the same day every week for best result.
Always use a new needle for every injection. Reusing needles can increase the risk of infection, blocked needles, and incorrect dosing.
Rotate injection sites with each injection (abdomen, thigh, or upper arm) to help prevent skin thickening or lumps.
Monitor your blood sugar regularly when starting treatment, changing your dose, or if you miss a dose.
Do not skip meals after taking your insulin, as missing meals may increase the risk of low blood sugar.
Do not stop using the medicine or change your dose without consulting your doctor. Stopping insulin suddenly may cause high blood sugar and serious complications.

Good blood sugar control can help reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications over time.

How often should I take Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch?

Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch is taken once a week as an injection under the skin. It should be injected on the same day every week to help maintain steady blood sugar control. Try to choose a day that is easy to remember and set a reminder if needed so that you do not miss your dose.

Where can I inject Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch?

Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch can be injected under the skin of the thigh, upper arm, or abdomen (stomach area). Rotate the injection site within the same body region each time you inject to reduce the risk of skin thickening or lumps. Do not inject into skin that is thickened, damaged, bruised, or has lumps.

Can I change the day of my weekly Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch injection?

Yes, you can. If you need to change your injection day, you may do so provided at least 4 days have passed since your last injection. Once you change the day, continue administering every week on your new chosen day.

Can I use the same needle more than once?

No. Always use a new needle for every injection. Reusing needles increases the risk of infection, blocked needles, and incorrect dosing. Remove and safely dispose of the needle after each injection, and never store the pen with the needle attached.

What should I do if my blood sugar becomes too low while taking Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch?

Low blood sugar should be treated immediately. Check your blood sugar if possible and consume a fast-acting source of sugar, such as glucose tablets, fruit juice, or a sugary drink. If your symptoms are severe, do not improve, or you become unconscious, seek medical help right away.

Can I use Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch with my other diabetes medicines?

Yes, Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch may be used with other diabetes medicines if prescribed by your doctor. However, some medicines can increase or decrease its blood sugar-lowering effect, so your doctor may need to adjust your treatment or monitor your blood sugar more closely. Always inform your doctor about all the medicines you are taking to make sure it is safe for you.

Can I stop taking Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch if my blood sugar becomes normal?

No. Do not stop using Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch without talking to your doctor, even if your blood sugar improves. Stopping it suddenly or missing doses may cause high blood sugar and, in some cases, lead to serious complications such as diabetic ketoacidosis. Your doctor will advise you if your treatment needs to be changed.

Can I drink alcohol while taking Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch?

Alcohol can affect your blood sugar levels and may increase the risk of low blood sugar in some people. If you drink alcohol, discuss it with your doctor and monitor your blood sugar carefully. Avoid excessive alcohol intake and be aware of the symptoms of hypoglycemia.

Who should not use Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch?

Awiqli 700 Units FlexTouch should not be used if you are having an episode of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) or if you are allergic to insulin icodec or any of its ingredients.

This will help your doctor decide whether the medicine is suitable for you.
