Lantus Solostar is a long-acting insulin used to help manage diabetes in both adults and children. Each Lantus Solostar pen contains 100 units of insulin per milliliter (100 U/mL), and it comes with five pre-filled pens, each containing 3 mL of insulin.
Benefits:
- The pre-filled pen is easy to use and eliminates the need for syringes, providing convenience for daily insulin administration.
- Offers predictable blood sugar control without the peaks and valleys seen with some other insulin types.
- Helps lower blood sugar levels and maintain them within a normal range, reducing the risk of complications associated with diabetes.
Main Ingredient & Its Benefits:
- Insulin Glargine: A long-acting form of insulin that mimics the body’s natural insulin release, maintaining steady blood sugar control over a 24-hour period.
- Remove the cap from the pen.
- Twist the dose selector on the pen to the prescribed dose as recommended by your doctor. Ensure that you have set the correct amount before injection.
- Choose an injection site (typically the thigh, abdomen, or upper arm). Clean the skin with an alcohol swab, insert the needle, and push the button to administer the insulin.
