Levemir Drug Interactions: Levemir is used by diabetics to lower their blood sugar. Like other insulin, many prescription or non-prescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements can interact with Levemir and alter how effective it will be so let your prescribing physician know if you are taking any. Patients need to be aware of and know how to recognize low blood sugar symptoms; it can become dangerous if it goes too low. Monitor your blood sugar levels with a glucose monitor while you are using insulin or other diabetic medications; many health insurance plans will cover the cost of a glucose monitor.
