Side Effects for Levemir (nsulin detemir)

LEVEMIR (NSULIN DETEMIR): Insulin detemir is used with a proper diet and exercise program to control high blood sugar in people with diabetes. Controlling high blood sugar helps prevent kidney damage, blindness, nerve problems, loss of limbs, and sexual function problems. Proper control of diabetes may also lessen your risk of a heart attack or stroke. Insulin detemir is a man-made product that is similar to human insulin. It replaces the insulin that your body would normally make. It acts longer than regular insulin, providing a low, steady level of insulin. It works by helping blood sugar (glucose) get into cells so your body can use it for energy. Insulin detemir may be used with a shorter-acting insulin product. It may also be used alone or with other diabetes drugs (such as metformin, exenatide). (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

stop bleeding/clots. shed uterus

Had no side effects until the second package (5th week) and now i have extreme cramping and had slight episode of vomiting. Don't recommend

This stuff is POISON! It should be pulled from the market and sent to the moon! It never helped my infection, it just made me MISERABLE! I am currently taking cephalexin and prednisone and it is WORKING! Given to me by a different doctor and i am actually getting better!

I hate that I can't concentrate. It got more and more difficult as my dose increased and just as school assignments and exams were getting more and more complex. The time it would take me to make decisions got longer. Some days I get bad speech days through which I have difficulty ordering and pronouncing the syllables of each word i say. This could very well be attributed to the difficulty concentrating as I have not previously had a speech disorder or defect.

Decided to quit cold turkey three weeks ago. Side effects are brutal. increased stomach discomfort, acid reflux back with a vengeance, kidney pains, and extreme insomnia. Go off this med gradually.
