Product introduction

Glaritus Injection can be prescribed alone or in combination with fast-acting insulin or other diabetes medicines. Your doctor or nurse will teach you how to inject it under the skin correctly. You should use this medicine regularly per the dose advised to get the maximum benefit. If you stop taking it, your blood sugar levels may rise very high, which may put you at risk of serious complications. It is only a part of the treatment program that should include a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight reduction, as your doctor advises.


The most common side effect of Glaritus Injection is low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia). To prevent this, it is important to inject only the correct dose of medicine, have regular meals, and monitor your blood sugar levels regularly. Drinking excessive alcohol can also lead to a fall in your blood sugar levels. Other common side effects include peripheral edema, lipodystrophy, allergic reactions, injection site reactions, itching, rashes, and weight gain.


Do not use Glaritus Injection when you have low blood sugar levels. Before starting the treatment, inform your doctor if you have ever had kidney, liver, or heart problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using it.

Uses of Glaritus Injection

Benefits of Glaritus Injection

Treatment of Diabetes
Glaritus Injection is a man-made form of insulin that helps to control high blood glucose (sugar) levels. It replaces the insulin that is usually produced in the body. This allows the glucose into your cells so your body can use it for energy. Lowering blood sugar levels helps reduce the risk of getting any of the serious complications of diabetes, such as kidney damage, eye damage, nerve problems, and loss of limbs.

Side effects of Glaritus Injection

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
Common side effects of Glaritus
  • Edema (swelling)
  • Allergic reaction
  • Injection site reactions (pain, swelling, redness)
  • Rash
  • Lipodystrophy (skin thickening or pits at the injection site)
  • Itching
  • Weight gain
  • Hypoglycemia (low blood glucose level)

How to use Glaritus Injection

Your doctor or nurse will give you this medicine. Kindly do not self administer.

How Glaritus Injection works

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

Quick tips

  • Glaritus 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.
  • Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar level) is a common side effect. Hence, regular monitoring of blood sugar levels is required while taking this medicine.
  • Always carry some high-sugar food, such as sugar candy or glucose candy, fruit juice, and glucose, with you so that you can take it when you experience symptoms of hypoglycemia, such as cold sweats, cool, pale skin, tremors, weakness, and anxiety.
  • Do not use it if the preparation is no longer clear and colorless or if it contains particles.

Frequently asked questions

Glaritus Injection is a man-made insulin that is very similar to human insulin. It has a long and steady (constant) effect on blood sugar levels, lasting an entire day. This makes it suitable for use once daily. It treats type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults and type 1 diabetes mellitus in adults and children.
Glaritus Injection is injected under the skin (subcutaneously) with a pen-like device or an insulin syringe and needle. There are various areas on the body where insulin can be injected, such as the abdomen (stomach area), thighs (upper portion of legs), upper arms, hips, or buttocks. Your doctor will show you the area of your skin where you should inject it.<br><br>Never inject it directly into a vein or a muscle. Before using Glaritus Injection, make sure the solution is colorless and free of particles. It should strictly be taken in the dose that has been prescribed to you. Follow your doctor’s instructions on administering Glaritus Injection correctly and monitor your blood sugar levels regularly.
Glaritus Injection is injected just below the skin (subcutaneously). Your doctor will train you on the correct method and the areas (abdomen or stomach, thighs, arms, hips, or buttocks) where you should inject it. It is advised that the injection site should be changed within the chosen skin area for every dose. For example, if you have been advised to inject it into the skin of your stomach, avoid puncturing the same point on your stomach every day. Instead, inject the needle at a site that is slightly away, say around 1 cm, from the previous injection.<br><br>You can also consider switching sides while injecting, like choosing the right side on one day and the left side on the next day. This way, you can reduce the complications associated with repeated injections in the same site, such as thickening of the fat tissue below the skin, known as lipodystrophy, irritation, pain, etc. After one to two weeks, you should move to another area of your body (e.g., from the stomach to the arms or thighs) as your doctor advises. Consult your doctor if you face any problems while injecting Glaritus Injection.
Glaritus Injection is long-acting and usually prescribed to be taken once daily. It can be taken at any time, but try to take it at the same time each day.
If you have accidentally taken more than the prescribed dose of Glaritus Injection, your blood sugar levels may become too low (hypoglycemia). This hypoglycemia may be mild or severe. Monitor your blood sugar levels more frequently for the next 24 hours. Mild episodes of hypoglycemia (with symptoms like anxiety, sweating, weakness, tremors, and fast heartbeat) can usually be corrected with the help of sugary foods such as sugary candy, fruit juice, and glucose.<br><br>However, it is important to consult your doctor to decide on a further course of treatment. More severe episodes of hypoglycemia may even lead to a seizure (fit) or unconsciousness. This can be life-threatening, and the patient should be rushed to an emergency department.
Keep this medication out of the reach of children in the container it came in. Store unopened vials and pens in the refrigerator, but do not freeze them. An unopened Glaritus Injection can be stored in the refrigerator until the date shown on the company's label. Moreover, never use the Glaritus Injection that has been frozen or defrosted. If a refrigerator is unavailable, the vials can be stored at room temperature and away from direct sunlight and extreme heat. It should appear as a clear, colorless solution free from particles.
You should consult your doctor about the scenarios where you may need to adjust your insulin dose. For example, if you are ill, you should monitor your blood sugar levels more closely. You must tell your doctor about all the medicines you are taking because many medicines can affect how insulin acts, and you may need to modify your dose. Your eating habits may also affect your dose; for example, if you eat less someday, skip a meal, or eat more than usual. Your blood sugar level may alter depending on your exercise regime, alcohol consumption, or stress. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should consult their doctor before taking Glaritus Injection as they may need to change their dose.
Serious side effects are rare with Glaritus Injection. Sometimes, severe allergic reactions may be seen with it. This can lead to rash, hives, itching all over the body, trouble breathing (wheezing), a fast heart rate, and low blood pressure. Get medical help right away if you develop any of these symptoms. Other side effects include severe hypoglycemia (low blood sugar levels), which can cause dizziness, sweating, anxiety, confusion, headache, blurred vision, slurred speech, shakiness, fast heartbeat, seizure (fits), and unconsciousness.<br><br>Taking certain medicines, such as TZDs (thiazolidinediones), may cause heart failure in some people, even if they have never had any heart problems before. Some people may also notice sudden weight gain and swelling (edema) of the ankles or feet. Consult your doctor immediately if you notice any of these side effects.
