Effective Diabetes Control | Prozinc Insulin for Cats and Dogs

Prozinc Insulin

Prozinc insulin for Cats is an aqueous protamine zinc suspension of recombinant human insulin that is used to reduce hyperglycemia (high blood glucose or high blood sugar) in cats with diabetes mellitus.

Prozinc Insulin is a prescription-only medication to manage diabetes in both cats and dogs. Diabetes, a chronic condition, is prevalent in the pet population and can significantly impact your pet's quality of life if not properly managed. It is characterised by a deficiency or inadequate response to insulin, leading to elevated blood glucose levels.

Prozinc Insulin for Cats and Dogs works by mimicking the function of naturally occurring insulin. It aids in the regulation of blood glucose levels by facilitating the uptake of glucose by cells and inhibiting the production of glucose in the liver. The result is more balanced blood glucose levels, leading to the alleviation of clinical signs associated with diabetes and a better quality of life for your pet.

Prozinc Insulin for Cats and Dogs

Prozinc Insulin is a vet-prescribed insulin used to manage diabetes mellitus in cats and dogs. Prozinc contains protamine zinc insulin, an intermediate-acting insulin derived from recombinant human insulin. Prozinc is specifically formulated to help regulate blood glucose levels and reduce the symptoms associated with diabetes in pets. Prozinc is most commonly prescribed for cats with diabetes mellitus, but it may also be used in dogs under veterinary direction.

Prozinc helps stabilise glucose levels by mimicking the action of naturally produced insulin in the pancreas. The use of Prozinc requires a vet’s diagnosis and ongoing monitoring to ensure proper dosage and effectiveness.

How Prozinc Insulin Works

Insulin is a hormone that plays a critical role in regulating glucose levels in the bloodstream. In healthy animals, insulin is naturally produced by the pancreas and helps transport glucose from the blood into the body’s cells, where it is used as a source of energy. In diabetic pets, the body either does not produce enough insulin or is unable to use it effectively. This leads to elevated blood glucose levels, which can result in various health complications over time. Prozinc contains protamine zinc recombinant human insulin, designed for a prolonged effect. Once injected subcutaneously, Prozinc gradually releases insulin into the bloodstream, helping to control glucose levels throughout the day. Its intermediate duration of action allows for fewer injections compared to shorter-acting insulins. This makes it a suitable option for ongoing diabetes management in both cats and dogs when prescribed and supervised by a veterinarian. Each dose of Prozinc is tailored to the specific needs of the pet, based on factors such as weight, blood glucose readings, and clinical signs. It is important that pet owners closely follow veterinary instructions and monitor their pet’s condition regularly.

Prozinc Insulin Syringes 0.3ml

Prozinc Insulin Syringes 0.3ml are designed for accurate and comfortable administration of Prozinc Insulin, a veterinary-prescribed insulin used to manage diabetes mellitus in cats and dogs. These syringes are essential for pet owners who administer daily insulin injections at home, ensuring precise dosing, minimal discomfort, and hygienic delivery.

Each syringe is pre-calibrated for 40 IU/ml (U-40) insulin, the concentration used in Prozinc insulin. The fine, lubricated needle is engineered to reduce discomfort and tissue trauma, allowing for a smoother injection experience. The 0.3ml capacity makes these syringes ideal for pets requiring smaller or carefully measured insulin doses.

How Prozinc Insulin Works

Prozinc (Protamine Zinc Insulin) is a long-acting insulin formulation developed specifically for cats and dogs. It works by replacing or supplementing the body’s natural insulin, enabling cells to absorb glucose from the bloodstream and convert it into energy.

Once injected under the skin, Prozinc gradually releases insulin into the bloodstream over several hours. This sustained release helps stabilise blood glucose levels throughout the day, reducing spikes and crashes that may cause symptoms such as fatigue or excessive thirst.

The medication is typically administered once or twice daily, depending on the veterinary prescription and the pet’s response. Regular blood glucose monitoring, often recommended by your vet, helps ensure that the correct dose is maintained.
