Terms & Conditions of Program
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
LANTUS (insulin glargine) is a medication prescribed to treat patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. People with diabetes have blood sugar levels that are too high because they do not produce enough insulin, or they have a resistance to insulin. LANTUS and other insulin products return high blood sugar levels to normal.
Inject LANTUS insulin once daily as directed by the physician.
Rotate injection sites to avoid side effects like lipodystrophy and injection site reactions.
LANTUS contains insulin glargine, which is a type of insulin that has been modified to be long-acting. LANTUS lasts for about 24 hours in most people and can be injected once daily.
LANTUS should not be used as meal-time insulin.
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking any of the following medications. They can affect blood sugar, and the dose of LANTUS may need to be adjusted:
Store LANTUS in the refrigerator (36°F-46°F [2°C-8°C]) before opening. Once a vial is opened, it can be kept at room temperature for 28 days and then discarded. For LANTUS pens, several come in a box, and only one should be opened at a time. They can also be stored at room temperature for 28 days after opening.
Only change the dosage of LANTUS under close medical supervision.
Changes in medication, meals, physical activity, and other medical conditions may change your insulin needs.
LANTUS insulin may have the following side effects:
