I’m on Lantus, just went on it about three weeks ago, after a bout of Covid, that made my diabetes go nuts, I was sailing along controlled by oral medications, suddenly my sugars went up to 600, and I’ve been a Diabetic for about 8-9 years, I’m not overweight, 6’1” 168, Covid made me loose 25 pounds, now that I’m on Lantus, I’m slowly gaining it back, even on a low carb diet so I don’t spike after meals.

Type 1 for 25 years. Lantus is used with Humalog and creates a roller coaster of low and highs compared to Novolin N and R that are available for 24 bucks each compared to 530 dollars.

also most diabetics have insulin resistance and Lantus is not strong enough

I went from insulin to methformin for a year that stopped working, made my A1c go for 5.1 to 8.1 blood sugar spiked to 400. Then went on trujardy for almost a year sadly that doesn’t work anymore. Now back to insulin pens, homolog and Lantau pens.

I have been on Lantus for going on 8 years, with an evening injection. Lantus did not work properly for me until my Doctor told me to split the dosage. Half at breakfast and half in the Evening. Immediately I my results were as they should be. I was also on a Januvia pill taken at breakfast. I stopped taking that pill when I started the twice a day insulin injection. Things seems to work well for me using this regiment. I'm sorry but Lantus does not work as a once a day insulin for some Diabetics. It wears off during the day and the body is in need of more insulin.

A very old school doctor with Hba1c target of 7 instead of 5.5. That target is deadly misleading. Whether or not you have diabetes, hba1c should be below 5.5.

Goals for diabetics are not the same. Obviously lower is better but it’s often not reasonable to expect such a low number from a diabetic.

Should Lantus be held if your blood sugar is below 60?
@barbcast6 жыл бұрын
Lantus is BACKGROUND insulin... it's what keeps sugar stable BETWEEN MEALS... It's not a substitute for mealtime insulin. Do not omit it, ever, unless your doctor tells you to.
