Caring for Children with Diabetes
Managing diabetes isn't easy, whether your child has just been diagnosed or your
family has been dealing with it for a while. There are medications to learn and
food choices to make. There are fears to overcome and worries to face. But step
by step, day by day, your family can learn how to succeed at managing blood sugar.
Here, you can learn more about LANTUS® 24-hour insulin and how it may help lower
blood sugar for children six years and older with type 1 diabetes. When used as
part of an overall diabetes treatment plan with a rapid-acting insulin, LANTUS®
helps control blood sugar all day and all night with one shot a day at the same
time each day. Once you learn more, talk to your healthcare provider about all of
your child’s diabetes treatment options, including LANTUS®. It could be what
your child needs to help control his or her blood sugar.
