Adding 24-Hour LANTUS® Insulin to Oral Diabetes Medications
You may have worked hard to control your blood sugar levels with diet, exercise and oral diabetes medications, but if your blood sugar levels are still too high, it may be time to ask your healthcare provider about LANTUS®.
LANTUS® is the only 24-hour insulin approved exclusively for use once a day. LANTUS® provides a slow, steady release of insulin to help control blood sugar levels around-the-clock.
One injection of LANTUS® lasts a full 24 hours. When you add LANTUS® to your oral diabetes medications, you may only have to take one shot of insulin a day at the same time each day.

Some people are afraid of insulin and shots, but they don't need to be. Insulin injections generally cause little discomfort, and can be made more convenient with a delivery system like the
LANTUS® SoloSTAR® insulin pen. In fact, it hurts less than the blood sugar level testing you've been doing all along!
LANTUS® is usually taken in combination with other diabetic therapies. That means you take LANTUS® insulin with something else. That "something else" may be the oral diabetes medication you're already prescribed or mealtime insulin.
LANTUS® plus oral medications, diet, and exercise can equal success. Read some inspiring LANTUS® success stories.
