Insulin Lispro Injection (Humalog) for Use in External Insulin Pumps
On June 2, the FDA approved the use of insulin lispro (rDNA origin)
injection (Humalog, made by Eli Lilly) in several external insulin pumps.
Insulin lispro should not be diluted or mixed with any other insulin when
used in a pump.
Pumps included in the approval include MiniMed Models 506, 507, and 508
using MiniMed Polyfin infusion sets, the Disertronic H-TRONplus V100 insulin
pump (with plastic 3.15 mL insulin reservoir), and the Disertronic D-TRON
and D-TRONplus insulin pumps (with lispro 3 mL cartridges) using Disertronic
Rapid Infusion sets.
