Byetta Injection is a revolutionary injectable medicine that contains the active substance exenatide, specifically designed to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 (non-insulin dependent) diabetes mellitus. Byetta that comes in a sterile, ready-to-use pre-filled injectable pen.
Byetta Injection is available in 2 strengths:
Byetta 10mcg Injection
Byetta 5mcg Injection
With its advanced formula, Byetta Injection has been clinically tested and proven to help lower blood sugar levels, decrease appetite, and promote weight loss in patients with type 2 diabetes. It works by mimicking the actions of the hormone GLP-1, which stimulates the pancreas to produce more insulin and reduces the liver’s production of glucose.
Byetta Injection is easy to use and is available in a range of doses to meet the needs of each individual patient. It is recommended that it be taken twice daily, 60 minutes before a meal. The pen is designed to be administered subcutaneously, or just below the skin, making it a convenient and virtually painless option for patients.
Byetta Injection has been shown to significantly improve glycemic control, reduce hemoglobin A1C levels, and lower fasting and postprandial glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes. Patients who have used Byetta Injection have reported improved quality of life, increased energy, and a greater sense of well-being.
Byetta Pen is an approved medication and is available by prescription only. It is an essential tool in the management of type 2 diabetes and can be used alone or in combination with other diabetes medications to achieve optimal glycemic control. If you or a loved one is living with type 2 diabetes, talk to your healthcare provider about Byetta Injection and see if it is the right option for you.

Do not use Byetta – If you are allergic to exenatide or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6). Warnings and precautions Talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or diabetes nurse before using Byetta about the following: – Using this medicine in combination with a sulphonylurea, as low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia) can occur. Ask your doctor, pharmacist, or diabetes nurse if you are not sure if any of your other medicines contain a sulphonylurea. – If you have type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis (a dangerous condition that can occur in diabetes), as you should not use this medicine. – How to inject this medicine. It should be injected under the skin and not into a vein or into the muscle. – If you have severe problems with slow stomach emptying or food digestion, as the use of this medicine is not recommended. The active substance in this medicine slows stomach emptying so food passes more slowly through your stomach. – If you have ever had inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis) (see section 4). – If you lose weight too quickly (more than 1.5 kg per week) talk to your doctor about it since this may cause problems such as gallstones. – If you have severe kidney disease or you are on dialysis, as the use of this medicine is not recommended. There is little experience with this medicine in patients with kidney problems. Byetta is not an insulin and should therefore not be used as a substitute for insulin. Children and adolescents Do not give this medicine to children and adolescents less than 18 years as there is no experience with this medicine in this age group. Other medicines and Byetta Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines, particularly: – medicines that are used to treat type 2 diabetes that work like Byetta (e.g. liraglutide and prolonged-release exenatide), as taking these medicines with Byetta is not recommended. – medicines used to thin the blood (anticoagulants), e.g. warfarin, as you will require additional monitoring of changes in INR (measurement of blood thinning) during initiation of therapy with this medicine. Ask your doctor if the time at which you take any tablets should be changed because this medicine slows stomach emptying and can affect medicines that need to pass through the stomach quickly, e.g. – Stomach resistant tablets or capsules (e.g. medicines that reduce stomach acid (proton pump inhibitors)) that should not stay too long in your stomach, may need to be taken an hour before, or four hours after this medicine. – Some antibiotics may need to be taken an hour before your Byetta injection. – For tablets that you need to take with food, it may be best if they are taken at a meal at a time when this medicine is not being administered. Byetta with food Use this medicine at any time within the 60 minutes (1 hour) before your meal. (See section 3 “How to use Byetta”). Do not use this medicine after your meal.
