Tempo Pen
- Which insulins are compatible with Tempo?
The insulins that work with the Tempo Smart Button are Lyumjev® (insulin lispro-aabc) injection 100 units/mL, BASAGLAR® (insulin glargine) injection 100 units/mL, and Humalog® (insulin lispro injection) 100 units/mL. To use these insulins, you must have a Lyumjev® Tempo Pen, BASAGLAR® Tempo Pen, or Humalog® Tempo Pen.
- Can I use the Tempo Pen without the Tempo Smart Button?
The Tempo Pen functions in a similar way to the prefilled insulin KwikPen® and is modified to work with the Tempo Smart Button.
You can use the Tempo Pen to give your insulin injection without the Tempo Smart Button. However, if used independently, the dose-related data from the Tempo Pen will not be captured by the Tempo Smart Button. This will make the data within the TempoSmart App incomplete until each dose taken without a Tempo Smart Button connection is accurately logged manually.
- Can I use the insulin I already have?
Not using a Tempo Pen is possible but is not recommended. Each dose of non-Tempo Pen insulin must be manually and accurately logged into the TempoSmart App. Access to the TempoSmart App is only available for 6 months if the Tempo Smart Button is not used.

INDICATION AND SAFETY SUMMARY
Lyumjev® (LOOM-jehv) (insulin lispro-aabc) injection 100 units/mL and Humalog® (HU-ma-log) (insulin lispro injection) 100 units/mL
- Lyumjev is a fast-acting insulin used to control high blood sugar in adults and children with diabetes. Humalog is a fast-acting insulin. Humalog is used to control high blood sugar in adults and children with diabetes.
- Lyumjev comes in two strengths: U-100 (100 units per milliliter) and U-200 (200 units per milliliter). Lyumjev U-200 contains 2 times as much insulin in 1 milliliter as Lyumjev U-100. Humalog U-100 contains 100 units of insulin per milliliter. The dose window of the pen shows the number of insulin units to be delivered.
- It is not known if Humalog is safe and effective for children with type 2 diabetes or for children younger than 3 years of age with type 1 diabetes as there were no studies done with Humalog in these groups of children. If your doctor decides to give your child any insulin products, he or she may give you special instructions.
All Lyumjev and Humalog products contain insulin lispro.
Warnings - Do not take Lyumjev or Humalog if you have:
- symptoms of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia)
- an allergy to insulin lispro-aabc, Humalog, or any of the ingredients in Lyumjev or Humalog.
Do not reuse needles or share your insulin injection supplies with other people. This includes your:
- prefilled pen for use by a single patient
- cartridges
- reusable pen that works with Lilly 3mL cartridges available for Humalog
- needles
- syringes
You or the other person can get a serious infection. This can happen even if you change the needle.
Do not change the type of insulin you take or your dose unless your doctor tells you to. This could cause low or high blood sugar, which could be serious.
Do not use a syringe to remove Lyumjev or Humalog from your prefilled pen. This can cause you to take too much insulin. Taking too much insulin can lead to severe low blood sugar. This may result in seizures or death.
Lyumjev and Humalog may cause serious side effects. Some of these can lead to death. The possible serious side effects are:
- Low blood sugar. This can cause:
- dizziness or lightheadedness
- headache
- shakiness
- irritability
- sweating
- blurred vision
- fast heartbeat
- mood change
- confusion
- slurred speech
- anxiety
- hunger
If you are at risk of having severely low blood sugar, your doctor may prescribe a glucagon emergency kit. These are used when your blood sugar becomes too low and you are unable to take sugar by mouth. Glucagon helps your body release sugar into your bloodstream. - Low potassium in your blood. This can lead to severe breathing problems, irregular heartbeat, and death.
- Severe allergic reaction.
Get emergency help right away if you have:- a rash over your whole body
- sweating
- extreme drowsiness
- swelling of your face, tongue, or throat
- trouble breathing
- a faint feeling
- dizziness
- a fast heartbeat
- shortness of breath
- confusion
- Heart failure. Taking diabetes pills called thiazolidinediones (thIE-uh-zOH-li-dEEn-dIE-OHns), or “TZDs,” with Lyumjev or Humalog may cause heart failure in some people. This includes people who do not have any heart problems. If you have heart failure, it may get worse if you take TZDs with Lyumjev or Humalog. Tell your doctor if you have any new symptoms of heart failure, or if they get worse. Some symptoms of heart failure include shortness of breath, swelling of ankles and feet, and sudden weight gain. Your doctor may need to change or stop treatment with TZDs and your insulin lispro product.
- Sudden onset of high blood sugar and high amounts of ketones in your blood or urine. You can have these serious side effects when your insulin pump or infusion set is not working the right way, if there are handling errors, or if your insulin is no longer effective. For these reasons, you may not get the right amount of insulin, so always keep extra insulin and injection supplies with you.
Common side effects
The most common side effects of Lyumjev and Humalog are:
- low blood sugar
- reactions or pain at the injection or infusion site with insulin pump use
- itching
- weight gain
- allergic reactions
- skin thickening or pits at the injection or infusion site
- rash
Other most common side effects with Humalog include swelling of your hands or feet.
These are not all of the possible side effects. Tell your doctor if you have any side effects. You can report side effects at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch.
Before using
