Hypurin® Porcine Insulin
(INSULIN Ph Eur)
Hypurin® Porcine insulin is an animal-derived insulin (porcine, pork base) and Wockhardt are the only remaining manufacturer in the world.
Product Update: Wockhardt Porcine insulin VIALS will no longer be available
Wockhardt UK has been the sole supplier of Porcine Insulin Globally for many years and have remained committed to supply patients for as long as possible.
Regrettably, we have had no choice but to discontinue the Hypurin® Porcine Insulin vials moving forward.
If you are a patient and currently use any Hypurin® vials, please contact your diabetes healthcare professional so that appropriate changes can be made to your insulin therapy.
The discontinuation of Hypurin® vials will not affect the supply of Hypurin® cartridges.
Hypurin® cartridges are compatible with the AutoPen Classic & mypen2 reusable, insulin delivery pens. We expect mypen2 to be available from September 2025
Details of mypen2 can be found below.
Changing insulin should only be done under medical supervision and the patient closely monitored
