The syringe must not contain any other medication
or residue. You should not use Lantus® if you are
allergic to insulin. Lantus
®
is a long-acting insulin you
inject just once a day, at the same time each day.
You
must test your blood sugar levels while using an
insulin such as Lantus.

The most common side effect of insulin, including
Lantus
®
, is hypoglycemia, which may be serious.
Other possible side effects may include injection site
reactions, including changes in fat tissue at the injection
site, and allergic reactions, including itching and
rash. In rare cases, some allergic reactions may be life
threatening. Tell your doctor about other medicines
and supplements you are taking because they can
change the way insulin works.
