Loves having to inject long-acting insulin only once a day

Before I was on LANTUS? I was on two other insulins, and my blood sugar was not in good control. My healthcare providers introduced me to LANTUS? about 1 year ago. I was undecided at first about this change. I began to take LANTUS? along with my mealtime insulin and it helped me to gain better control of my blood sugars. I love only having to take one injection a day of LANTUS? at the same time each day. Thank you for this wonderful product. I recommend that everyone with type 1 diabetes talk to their healthcare provider about whether LANTUS? may be right for them.

Overcame initial fear of needles

About 1 year ago at the age of 53 I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Having watched my mother die at the age of 59 from poor blood sugar control, which led to diabetic complications, I was really scared. We started on the pills. After trying endless combinations of this pill and that pill, my sugar level was no better. About 6 months ago my healthcare provider said let's try LANTUS?. With the help of LANTUS?, along with my pills, I have been able to lower my A1C levels. I was very hesitant to use needles but have found it to be just fine. My biggest tip is to let the LANTUS? come to room temperature for the least amount of discomfort when injecting. Thank you LANTUS?!

Wishes everyone could have lower blood sugar levels

My blood sugar was out of control, so I was put on LANTUS? - one shot a day at the same time each day in addition to my oral diabetes medication. With the help of LANTUS?, my blood sugar levels are lower. I wish everyone could have the same results.

Would not miss a dose of LANTUS? for anything
I was someone who pretty much refused to take my healthcare provider's advice to see a diabetes educator.

Suddenly I started losing weight very rapidly. I thought this was great until I realized my urine was thick like a thin syrup and smelled really bad. My wife complained of my breath, and my back hurt every morning, especially around my kidneys.

I finally went to see the diabetes educator. She took blood tests and found my A1C was very high. I was passing protein in my urine, and I could not get a lipids reading due to my A1C value.

My healthcare provider put me on LANTUS? once a day at the same time each day for two weeks. I controlled my diet. I returned two weeks later and she increased my dose of LANTUS?. This went on for a few months, and I started using a quick-acting insulin with meals; however, I kept on the LANTUS? to cover me between meals and for liver-released sugars.

LANTUS? has helped me to manage my blood sugar levels. I would not miss a dose of LANTUS? for anything.
