Lantus (Insulin Glargine)
Lantus is a long-acting insulin that helps control blood sugar levels in people with diabetes. It contains insulin glargine, a man-made form of insulin that works slowly and consistently over time to keep blood sugar levels stable.
Why Choose Lantus (Insulin Glargine)?
- Long-Acting Insulin – Lantus provides a steady release of insulin over 24 hours, helping to maintain consistent blood sugar levels throughout the day and night.
- Flexibility – Lantus can be taken once daily, at any time, as long as it is taken at the same time each day.
- Compatibility – Lantus can be used in combination with other fast-acting or short-acting insulin injections for optimal blood sugar control.
- Simple to use – Lantus is available in a pre-filled pen (Lantus SoloSTAR) and vials, offering convenience and ease of use.
How to use Lantus (Insulin Glargine)?
Using Lantus correctly is crucial for effective blood sugar management. Please follow these steps and consult your healthcare provider for personalized instructions.
- Check the label – Before each use, ensure that you have the correct insulin type and concentration.
- Prepare the injection site – Clean the skin at the injection site with an alcohol swab, and allow it to dry completely.
- Dose Preparation – If using a Lantus vial, draw the prescribed dose into an insulin syringe. If using a Lantus SoloStar pen, attach a new needle and prime the pen according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Dial the prescribed dose.
- Dispose of the needle – Safely discard the used needle or pen in a sharps container.
- Record your dose – Keep track of your insulin doses, blood sugar levels, and any reactions to help your healthcare provider make adjustments to your diabetes management plan as needed.
