Good morning. I was using Levemir and also allergic to Lantus. My Dr. put me on degludec (generic Tresiba), and it has been great, although my blood sugar does drop at night. Good luck!

Most of the new products are using Lantus in their products. (or some derivative) I have a severe ALLERGY to Lantus. My physician wanted me to ask my pharma. when I went to pick up the Trejo (that she ordered as a 'guess') to ask him if it had any "Lantus components". He told me not to take it, that it did. He suggested Tresceba (sp?). What are your thoughts.

While the search results don't specifically address Levemir's discontinuation, it's worth noting that the insulin market is evolving with new biosimilar options becoming available. These biosimilar insulins are designed to work the same way as brand-name versions, with no meaningful differences in safety or effectiveness.

If you're concerned about accessing your insulin, speak with your healthcare provider about alternative long-acting insulin options. They can help determine the best replacement that matches your current treatment needs and lifestyle. The good news is that there are several insulin options available, including biosimilar products that may be more affordable. When switching to a new insulin, your healthcare provider will help ensure the transition is smooth and that your blood sugar management remains stable.
