Soliqua Works Fine But Requires Larger Doses Than Previous Medications
Soliqua's Lantus works fine for the insulin portion of the combination, but the Lixisenatide portion, in my experience, does not suppress hunger as advertised -- at least in me. I switched from Humulin N Kwikpens and Ozempic at my doctor's suggestion to save money. Ozempic works great to reduce hunger and curbs my appetite all day. Soliqua does not curb my appetite. Big difference.

Soliqua 100/33
The Soliqua pens are very easy to use. Previously, I used Humulin N Qwik Pens daily and Ozempic weekly. Soliqua consists of 100 mL of glargine (long-acting) insulin and 33 mL of Lixisenatide, an incretin mimetic [glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist], that stimulates the pancreas to secrete insulin when blood sugar levels are high and also slows the emptying of the stomach and causes a decrease in appetite. Together, they work almost exactly like my former medications at a lesser cost. So far, so good.The only issue was making the transition from giving myself evening injections of Humulin N to daily morning injections of Soliqua, but I've managed to make the transition fairly painlessly.
