Lantus Cartridges

Lantus Cartridges contain insulin glargine, a long-acting insulin analog used to control blood sugar levels in individuals with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. These cartridges are designed for use in compatible insulin pens, offering convenience and precise dosing for daily insulin needs.

Benefits:

• Provides long-lasting blood sugar control over 24 hours.
• Suitable for adults and children aged 6 years and older with diabetes.
• Reduces the risk of diabetes-related complications with consistent glucose management.
• Convenient cartridge design for use with reusable insulin pens.
• No pronounced insulin peak, minimizing the risk of hypoglycemia.

Dosage:

• For type 1 diabetes, the starting dose is typically 0.2-0.4 units/kg per day, adjusted based on blood sugar levels.
• For type 2 diabetes, the usual starting dose is 10 units once daily, adjusted as needed.
• Administer once daily at the same time each day.
• Dose adjustments should be made in increments of 2-4 units every few days, depending on blood sugar monitoring results and healthcare provider recommendations.

Warnings and Precautions:

• Do not use Lantus if you are allergic to insulin glargine or any of its ingredients.
• Always use Lantus Cartridges as part of a comprehensive diabetes plan that includes diet and exercise.
• Do not inject Lantus into a vein or muscle. It is for subcutaneous use only.
• Regularly monitor blood sugar levels to avoid hypo- or hyperglycemia.
• Inform your healthcare provider about other medications you are taking, as they may affect blood sugar control.
• Consult your healthcare provider if pregnant or breastfeeding for appropriate insulin adjustments.

• Inject subcutaneously in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. Rotate injection sites regularly.
• Do not mix Lantus with other insulin products in the same syringe or pen.
