LYUMJEV 100 units/ml TEMPO PEN PRE-FILLED PEN INJECTION SOLUTION

2. What you need to know before you use Lyumjev Tempo Pen

Do not use Lyumjev Tempo Pen

• if you think your blood sugar level is low (hypoglycemia). Later in this leaflet, it is indicated how to act in case of low blood sugar level (see section 3 "If you use more Lyumjev than you should").
• if you are allergicto insulin lispro or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).

Warnings and precautions

Talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before starting to use Lyumjev.

If you have vision problems, you will need the help of a trained person to give injections.

• Low blood sugar(hypoglycemia).

A low blood sugar level can be serious and untreated hypoglycemia can even lead to death.

Lyumjev starts to lower blood sugar more quickly than other insulins administered at mealtimes. If you have hypoglycemia, you may notice it soon after a Lyumjev injection. If you have frequent hypoglycemia or have difficulty recognizing the symptoms, please discuss this with your doctor or nurse. If your blood sugar levels are well controlled with your current insulin therapy or if you have had diabetes for a long time, you may not notice the warning signs that your blood sugar level is dropping too low. Later in this leaflet, the warning signs are listed. For more information on symptoms, please consult "Common problems of diabetes".

You should carefully plan when to eat, when to exercise, and how much you can do. You should also closely monitor your blood sugar levels by doing frequent blood sugar tests.

Changing the type of insulin you use may cause your blood sugar level to rise or fall too much.

You may need to increase the frequency of blood sugar tests if you are at risk of having low blood sugar levels. Your doctor may consider it necessary to make changes in the doses of other medicines you use to treat your diabetes.

• High blood sugar(hyperglycemia).

Stopping insulin administration or not using enough insulin may cause high blood sugar levels (hyperglycemia) and diabetic ketoacidosis, which are serious disorders that can even lead to death. For more information on symptoms, please consult "Common problems of diabetes".

• If you combine your insulin treatment with a type of diabetes medicine called thiazolidinediones or glitazones, such as pioglitazone, inform your doctor as soon as possible if you have signs of heart failure such as abnormal difficulty breathing, rapid weight gain, or localized swelling caused by fluid retention (edema).
• If you have a severe allergic reaction to insulin or any of the components of Lyumjev, stop using this medicine and contact the emergency medical service immediately.
• Always check the name and type of insulin that appears on the packaging and label when you receive it at the pharmacy. Make sure you are carrying the Lyumjev that your doctor has prescribed for you.
• Keep the box or note the batch number that appears on the box. This way, if you experience a side effect, you can provide that number when reporting the side effect, see "Reporting side effects".
• Always use a new needle for each injection to prevent infections and needle blockage. If the needle becomes blocked, replace it with a new needle.

• Changes in the skin at the injection site.

You should rotate the injection site to avoid changes in the skin, such as lumps under the skin. Insulin may not work very well if it is injected into a swollen area (see How to use Lyumjev Tempo Pen). Contact your doctor if you are currently injecting into a swollen area, before starting to inject into a different area. Your doctor may indicate that you should check your blood sugar levels more closely and adjust your insulin or the dose of your other anti-diabetic medications.

The Tempo Pen contains a magnet. If you have an implanted medical device, such as a pacemaker, it may not work properly if you hold the Tempo Pen too close. The magnetic field extends up to approximately 1.5 cm.

Children and adolescents

This medicine is not recommended for use in children under 1 year of age.

Other medicines and Lyumjev

Tell your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines. Some medicines affect your blood sugar level, and you may need to change your insulin dose.

Your blood sugar level may decrease (hypoglycemia) if you take:

• other diabetes medicines (oral and injectable)
• sulphonamide-type antibiotics (to treat infections)
• acetylsalicylic acid (to relieve pain and lower mild fever, and to prevent blood clots)
• certain antidepressants (monoamine oxidase inhibitors or selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors)
• certain angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE inhibitors) (e.g., captopril, enalapril) (to treat certain heart problems or high blood pressure)
• angiotensin II receptor blockers (to treat high blood pressure or heart problems)
• somatostatin analogues (such as octreotide, used to treat a rare disease characterized by excessive production of growth hormone)

Your blood sugar level may increase (hyperglycemia) if you take:

• danazol (to treat endometriosis)
• oral contraceptives (birth control pill)
• thyroid hormone replacement therapy (to treat thyroid problems)
• human growth hormone (to treat growth hormone deficiency)
• diuretics (to treat high blood pressure or if your body retains too much fluid)
• sympathomimetics (to treat severe allergic reactions or used in some cold medicines)
• corticosteroids (to treat asthma or autoimmune diseases)

Betablockers (used for high blood pressure, arrhythmias, or angina pectoris) may make it harder to recognize the warning signs of low blood sugar levels.

Using Lyumjev with alcohol

If you drink alcohol, your blood sugar levels may increase or decrease. Therefore, you may need to change the amount of insulin you use. You should check your blood sugar level more frequently than usual.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist for advice before using this medicine. The amount of insulin you need usually decreases during the first three months of pregnancy and increases during the last six months. After you have given birth, your insulin requirements will probably return to what they were before pregnancy.

During breastfeeding, there are no restrictions on treatment with Lyumjev. If you are breastfeeding, you may need to adjust your insulin dose or diet.

Driving and using machines

Your ability to concentrate and react may be reduced if you have hypoglycemia. Please consider this possible problem, taking into account all situations that may be a risk for you or others (e.g., driving a car or using machines). You should talk to your doctor about whether it is safe for you to drive if you:

• have frequent episodes of hypoglycemia
• have difficulty recognizing the warning signs of hypoglycemia or do not recognize them

Lyumjev Tempo Pen contains sodium

This medicine contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per dose; i.e., it is essentially "sodium-free".

3. How to use Lyumjev Tempo Pen

Follow the administration instructions for the medication contained in this prospectus or as indicated by your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse. If in doubt, ask your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse.

They will have indicated exactly how much Lyumjev to use, when to use it, and how often. They will also indicate how often you should visit your doctor.

To prevent the possible transmission of diseases, each pen should be used only by you, even if you change the needle.

You should always carry a spare insulin and another injection device in case you need to use it.

If you are blind or have reduced vision, you will need the help of a person to administer the injections.

Your doctor may indicate that you use Lyumjev as well as a long-acting or intermediate-acting insulin. Inject them separately. Lyumjev should not be mixed with any other insulin.

The Tempo Pen is designed to work with the Tempo Smart Button. The optional additional Tempo Smart Button is a product available for the Tempo Pen, which can be used to transmit dose information to a mobile application. The Tempo Pen can be used with or without the Tempo Smart Button attached. For more information, consult the instructions provided with the Tempo Smart Button and the mobile application instructions.

When to inject Lyumjev

Lyumjev is an insulin that is administered at mealtime. You should use Lyumjev when you start eating, or one or two minutes before eating; you also have the option to inject up to 20 minutes after starting the meal.

How much insulin to use

Your doctor will determine the dose based on your blood sugar level and body weight and will explain

• How much Lyumjev you need at each meal.
• How and when to check your blood sugar level.
• How to change your insulin dose based on your blood sugar levels.
• What to do if you make changes to your diet, exercise, or if you are sick or using other medications.
• If you change the type of insulin you use, you may need to use a larger or smaller amount than before. This may only be the case for the first injection or may require a gradual change that lasts several weeks or months.

Do not use Lyumjev

• If it does not have the appearance of water. Lyumjev should be transparent, colorless, and free of solid particles. Check it every time you inject.
• If Lyumjev has not been stored correctly (see section 5 "Storage of Lyumjev").
• If the pen is damaged in any way, do not use it.

How to prepare the Tempo Pen (please consult the instructions for use)

• First, wash your hands.
• Read the instructions on how to use your pre-loaded insulin pen. Follow the instructions carefully. Below are some reminders.
• Use a new needle. (Needles are not included).
• Purge your Tempo Pen before each use. This verifies that the insulin comes out and that air bubbles are removed from your Tempo Pen. There may still be some small air bubbles in your pen. Small air bubbles are normal and will not affect your dose.
• The number of units is shown in the dosing window, always check it before injecting.

How to inject Lyumjev

• Before injecting, clean your skin.
• Inject under the skin (subcutaneous injection), as your doctor or nurse has taught you.
• After the injection, leave the needle in the skin for 5 seconds to ensure you have injected the full dose. Make sure you have injected at least 1 cm away from where you last injected and "alternate" the injection sites (upper arm, thigh, buttocks, or abdomen).
• If you do not have enough insulin in the pen to complete your dose, note how much you still need to use. Purge a new pen and inject the remaining dose.
• If you need to inject another insulin at the same time as Lyumjev, use a different injection site.
• Do not inject directly into a vein.

After the injection

• As soon as you have finished injecting, unscrew the needle from the Tempo Pen using the outer needle protector. This will maintain the sterility of the insulin and prevent losses. It will also prevent air from entering the pen and the needle from becoming clogged. Do not share needles. Do not share your pen. Put the cap back on the pen.
• If you are unsure how much you have injected, check your blood sugar level before deciding if you need another injection.

Subsequent injections

• Each time you use a Tempo Pen, use a new needle. Before each injection, eliminate air bubbles. You can see how much insulin is left by holding the Tempo Pen with the needle pointing upwards.
• Once the Tempo Pen is empty, do not use it again.

If you use more Lyumjev than you should

If you inject too much Lyumjev, or are unsure how much you have injected, you may have low blood sugar. Check your blood sugar level.

If your blood sugar level is low (hypoglycemia) and you can treat yourself, take glucose tablets, sugar, or drink a sugary drink. Then eat fruit, cookies, or a snack, as your doctor or nurse has indicated, and take a rest. This usually helps to overcome a low blood sugar level or a mild insulin overdose. Check your blood sugar level again after 15-20 minutes until your blood sugar level stabilizes.

If you are unable to treat yourself (severe hypoglycemia) because you feel too dizzy, weak, confused, have difficulty speaking, loss of consciousness, or have a seizure, you may need treatment with glucagon. This can be administered by someone who knows how to use it. After being treated with glucagon, take glucose or sugar. If you do not respond to glucagon, you should go to the hospital or call emergency services. Ask your doctor to inform you about glucagon.

Tell the people around you that you have diabetes. Tell them what the consequences of low blood sugar levels might be, including the risk of losing consciousness.

Tell them that if you become unconscious, they should do the following: lay you on your side to prevent choking, seek immediate medical attention, and do not give you anything to eat or drink, as you may choke.

If you forgot to use Lyumjev

If you forget to use your insulin or use less than you should, or are unsure how much you have injected, your blood sugar level may become very high (hyperglycemia). Check your blood sugar level to decide if an insulin dose is needed. Resume your usual dosing schedule at the next meal.

If you interrupt treatment with Lyumjev

Do not interrupt treatment or change insulin unless your doctor indicates it. If you use less Lyumjev than you should, you may have high blood sugar.

If high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) is not treated properly, it can be very serious and cause headache, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dehydration, loss of consciousness, coma, and even death (see section 4).

Three simple measuresto reduce the risk of hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia are:

• Always carry a spare pen in case you lose your Tempo Pen or it breaks.
• Always carry some identification that indicates you have diabetes.
• Always carry something sugary with you.

If you have any other questions about using this medication, ask your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse.

4. Possible side effects

Like all medications, this medication can cause side effects, although not everyone may experience them.

Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia)is very common with insulin treatment (may affect more than 1 in 10 people). It can be very serious. If your blood sugar level drops too low, you may lose consciousness. Severe hypoglycemia can cause brain damage and put your life at risk. If you have symptoms of low blood sugar, act immediatelyto increase your blood sugar level. See section 3 "If you use more Lyumjev than you should".

Allergic reactionsare common (may affect up to 1 in 10 people). They can be serious and include the following symptoms:

If you have a severe allergic reaction(including anaphylactic shock) to insulin or any of the components of Lyumjev, stop using this medication and contact emergency medical services immediately.

Other side effects include

Common

Reactions at the injection site. In some people, redness, pain, inflammation, or itching may appear at the insulin injection site. These reactions usually disappear within a few minutes to a few weeks without needing to interrupt Lyumjev. If you have reactions at the injection site, talk to your doctor.

Uncommon(may affect up to 1 in 100 people)

Changes in the skin at the injection site: If you inject insulin too frequently in the same spot, the fatty tissue can shrink (lipoatrophy) or become thicker (lipohypertrophy). Lumps under the skin can also occur due to the accumulation of a protein called amyloid (cutaneous amyloidosis). Insulin may not work very well if injected into a lumpy area. Change the injection site to help avoid these skin changes.

Other possible side effects

Swelling in the arms or ankles due to fluid retention (edema), especially at the start of insulin treatment or during a change in your diabetes medications.

Reporting side effects

If you experience any side effects, consult your doctor or pharmacist, even if they are possible side effects not listed in this prospectus. You can also report them directly through the national reporting system included in Appendix V. By reporting side effects, you can help provide more information on the safety of this medication.

Common diabetes problems

Low blood sugar

Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) means you do not have enough sugar in your blood.

This can happen if:

• you use too much Lyumjev or other insulin;
• you skip or delay meals, or change your diet;
• you exercise or work hard immediately before or after a meal;
• you have an infection or illness (especially diarrhea or vomiting);
• there is a change in your insulin needs, for example, if you lose weight; or you have kidney or liver problems that worsen.

See section "If you use more Lyumjev than you should".

The first symptoms of low blood sugar usually appear quickly and include:

• fatigue
• rapid heartbeat
• nervousness or tremors
• nausea
• headache
• cold sweat

If you are unsure about recognizing the warning signs, avoid situations such as driving a car, where you or others could be in danger if hypoglycemia occurs.

High blood sugar (hyperglycemia)and diabetic ketoacidosis

Hyperglycemia (too much sugar in the blood) means that the glucose levels in your body are too high. Hyperglycemia can be caused by:

• not using your insulin;
• using less insulin than your body needs;
• an imbalance between the amount of carbohydrates you eat and the insulin you use; or
• fever, infection, or emotional stress.

The first symptoms of hyperglycemia are:

• feeling very thirsty
• headache
• drowsiness
• increased need to urinate

Hyperglycemia can lead to diabetic ketoacidosis. The first symptoms appear slowly, over many hours or several days. These symptoms include:

• nausea and/or vomiting
• abdominal pain
• rapid pulse
• rapid breathing
• moderate or large amounts of ketones in the urine. Ketones are produced when your body uses fat instead of glucose for energy.

If you have any of these symptoms and high blood sugar, seek medical attention immediately.

See section "If you forgot to use Lyumjev".

Illness

If you are sick, especially if you have nausea or vomiting, the amount of insulin you need may vary. Even if you are not eating as usual, you still need insulin.Check your urine or blood, follow the instructions you have been given for these cases, and inform your doctor.

Instructions for Use

Lyumjev 100 units/ml Tempo Peninjectable solution in a prefilled pen

insulin lispro

PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING

Read the instructions for use before starting to use Lyumjev and each time you start a new Lyumjev Tempo Pen. There may be new information. This information does not replace a direct conversation with your healthcare professional about your condition or treatment.

Lyumjev 100 units/ml Tempo Pen ("pen") is a prefilled pen that contains 3 ml (300 units, 100 units/ml) of insulin lispro injectable solution.

• Your healthcare professional will tell you how many units to use for your dose and how to inject the prescribed dose of insulin.
• You can give more than 1 dose with your pen.
• Each turn of the dosing button marks 1 unit of insulin. You can give from 1 to 60 units in a single injection.
• If your dose is more than 60 units, you will need to give more than 1 injection. Always check the number in the dose window to make sure you have dialed the correct dose.
• With each injection, the plunger moves only a little, so you may not see it move. The plunger will reach the end of the cartridge only when you have used all 300 units in the pen.

The Tempo Pen is designed to work with Tempo Smart Button. Tempo Smart Button is an optional product that can be attached to the dosing button of Tempo Pen and helps to transmit information about Lyumjev doses from Tempo Pen to a compatible mobile application.

Tempo Pen injects insulin with or without Tempo Smart Button attached. Your Smart Button must be attached to Tempo Pen to record or transfer dose data. Push the Smart Button down onto the dosing button until you hear a click or feel the Smart Button snap into place. To transmit data to the mobile application, follow the instructions provided with Tempo Smart Button and the mobile application instructions.

Do not share your Lyumjev Tempo Pen with other people, even if you have changed the needle. Do not reuse or share needles with other people. You may give them a serious infection, or you may get a serious infection from them.

Blind or visually impaired people should not use the pen without the help of a person trained in the use of the pen.

Parts of Lyumjev Tempo Pen

How to Recognize Your Lyumjev Tempo Pen

Materials Needed to Inject

• Lyumjev Tempo Pen

• Needle compatible with Tempo Pen (BD needles [Becton, Dickinson and Company] are recommended)

• Cotton or gauze

The needle, cotton, or gauze are not included.

Preparing Your Pen

• Wash your hands with soap and water.

• Check the pen to make sure you are using the correct type of insulin. This is especially important if you use more than 1 type of insulin.

• Do notuse your pen past the expiration date printed on the label or more than 28 days after you first start using your pen.

• Always use a new needlefor each injection to help prevent infections and needle clogging.

Priming Your Pen

Prime before each injection.

• Priming your pen means removing any air that may be in the needle and cartridge during normal use and ensures that the pen works correctly.

• If you do notprime before each injection, you may get too much or too little insulin.

Selecting Your Dose

• You can give from 1 to 60 units in a single injection.

• If your dose is more than 60 units, you will need to give more than 1 injection.

• If you need help in deciding how to divide your dose, ask your healthcare professional.

• Use a new needle for each injection and repeat the priming steps.

• The pen will not let you dial more units than the pen contains.

• If you need to inject more units than the pen contains, you can:

• inject the amount left in your pen and then use a new pen to inject the remaining dose,

or

• use a new pen and inject the full dose.

• It is normal to see a small amount of insulin left in the pen that you cannot inject.

Giving the Injection

• Inject your insulin as your healthcare professional has shown you.

• Change (rotate) the injection site each time you give an injection.

• Do nottry to change your dose while injecting.

After Your Injection

Disposal of Needles and Syringes

• Deposit used needles in a puncture-proof container or a hard plastic container with a secure closure. Do notthrow needles directly into the household trash container.
