Quick answers
Do I need a prescription to order Lantus Solostar Pens?
Lantus is a prescription insulin, so we need a valid prescription from your healthcare provider before your order can be filled. You can upload it at checkout, or you or your doctor can email it to service@canadianinsulin.com or fax it to 1-866-951-0118. If the prescription is missing, your order won’t be processed until we receive it.
What does the price of Lantus Solostar Pens include?
Prices on Canadian Insulin are in US dollars (USD), and the price in the buy box covers one pack of five 3 mL pens, multiplied by the number of packs you choose. Lantus ships cold-packed by Express shipping, which is added at checkout and shown before you pay. Orders of fewer than 3 cold items shipped from Canada carry a $50 surcharge, shown before you pay. Ordering 3 or more avoids it.
Which Lantus Solostar Pens strength and pack size should I order?
Lantus Solostar is listed in one strength, 100 U/mL, in a pack of five 3 mL prefilled pens from Canada. Check that your prescription is for Lantus Solostar pens, not Lantus vials or another insulin glargine product, as they aren’t interchangeable without your prescriber’s direction. Then choose the number of packs that matches the supply on your prescription.
How is Lantus Solostar Pens kept cold in transit?
Lantus ships cold-packed in medical-grade insulated packaging by Express shipping. Orders usually ship within 48–72 hours of processing, or up to 5 business days in peak periods. After your order ships, Express delivery takes 3–5 business days. When it arrives, put the unused pens in the refrigerator right away, and don’t use any pen that has been frozen.

Storage and Handling
When your order arrives, store unused Lantus Solostar pens in the refrigerator between 2°C and 8°C (36°F and 46°F). Don’t freeze them, and don’t use a pen that has been frozen. Unused pens can also be kept at room temperature below 30°C (86°F) for up to 28 days.
Once you start using a pen, keep it at room temperature below 30°C (86°F), not in the refrigerator, and use it within 28 days. Keep it away from heat and light, and don’t store it with a needle attached. When you travel, carry your pens in your hand luggage, not checked bags.
What Lantus Solostar Pens Is Approved For
Lantus (insulin glargine) is a long-acting basal insulin. It is approved to improve blood sugar control in adults and children with type 1 diabetes and in adults with type 2 diabetes. It is not used to treat diabetic ketoacidosis.

Lantus Safety Information
Don’t use Lantus during an episode of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) or if you’re allergic to insulin glargine or any of its ingredients. Low blood sugar is the main risk with any insulin, so learn its signs, such as shakiness, sweating, confusion or a fast heartbeat.
Never share your pen or needles with anyone, even if the needle is changed. Contact your prescriber before changing your insulin or how you use it, and tell them if you take a thiazolidinedione (such as pioglitazone), since this can cause fluid retention. Get medical help right away for severe low blood sugar or signs of an allergic reaction. See the DailyMed Lantus label for full details.
How Lantus Solostar Pens Compares to the Other Insulins We Carry
Lantus is a long-acting basal insulin, like the other long-acting insulins we carry. Lantus Vial contains the same insulin glargine in a vial, and Basaglar KwikPen also contains insulin glargine. Tresiba FlexTouch Pens contain insulin degludec, and Levemir PenFill Cartridges contain insulin detemir.
Long-acting insulins differ in their active ingredient, how long they last and how they’re delivered (pen, vial or cartridge), and they aren’t interchangeable without your prescriber’s direction. Browse all long-acting insulin.

Do I need a prescription for Lantus Solostar Pens?
Yes. Lantus is a prescription insulin, and we need a valid prescription before your order can be filled. Upload it at checkout, or have your doctor email it to service@canadianinsulin.com or fax it to 1-866-951-0118. If you prefer, we can also contact your clinic to request the prescription.
Is Lantus Solostar Pens the same as the one my pharmacy dispenses?
Lantus Solostar is made by Sanofi and contains insulin glargine. The pens we list are sourced from Canada, so the carton and labeling may look different from the pack your local pharmacy dispenses. Check that the product name and concentration on the label match your prescription, and ask your pharmacist if you have any questions.
Why does my Lantus Solostar Pens total change between orders?
Your total depends on the number of packs, the country of origin and shipping, and all prices are in US dollars (USD). If you order a different number of packs, your total changes too. Orders of fewer than 3 cold items shipped from Canada carry a $50 surcharge, shown before you pay. Ordering 3 or more avoids it.
How should Lantus Solostar Pens be stored once it arrives?
Put unused pens in the refrigerator between 2°C and 8°C (36°F and 46°F) right away, and don’t freeze them. Once you start using a pen, keep it at room temperature below 30°C (86°F), not in the refrigerator, and use it within 28 days. Don’t store it with a needle attached.
How long does delivery take?
Orders usually ship within 48–72 hours of processing. Lantus ships cold-packed by Express shipping, which takes 3–5 business days after your order ships. We’ll email you a tracking number when it ships, and extra customs checks can sometimes add time. See our shipping page for full details.
