Is Lantus Better Than Toujeo For A Type 1 Diabetic?

I was changed to toujeo about 3weeks ago. I take it at night but throughout the night my sugar starts going up. Should it be changed back to lantus? I'm a type 1 and have a dexcom which has been great so far. What is a good recommendation ?

Clarification On Meal Time Insulin

Well, my Dr. increased Toujeo insulin to 80 units. I take this 2 hrs after meal. Is there a grace period after eating?
I'm finding it difficult to test blood sugar when out for dinner. If I eat at 6pm, I might not get home within 2 hours.

Please explain meal time doeses. Not there yet but I'm proactive.

Thank you. I love this site.

Is Anyone Using Toujeo Insulin

I was on Lantus and Apidra for many years. My Dr changed my insulin to Toujeo and Apidra. I am finding Toujeo less effective and have to take more of it. Has this happened to anyone else. Also am struggling with morning blood sugars which are high no matter what I eat the night before.....Insulin has also resulted in weight gain . Please share if you have any solutions to this problem or know anyhing about Toujeo. Thanks

Who Takes Toujeo?

I've taken Lantus solostar for a long time and to keep it short I had Toujeo refilled instead, I've taken it before, but I am on 26u of lantus and toujeo says it's 3 times more powerful but I don't remember being it that way, this morning I shot 26 like lantus, we'll see what it says in the morning.

I Have A Very High Deductable Through My Insurance Plan Which Is Bringing My Toujeo, Humalog And Victoza To Around $700.00 Or Just Over.

what can i do to bring it down?

NovoLog

Are there any alternatives to Novolog? It is not in my plans formulary and they want me to use a step therapy plan as an alternative. Not sure what step therapy is?

Just Got Put On Lantus. When Do You Check Your B.s. Before Or After Meals

Meal Time Insulin

Meal time insulin is coming for sure. I see my Dr. in September and my am and pm bs are very high. The increase of Toujeo to 80 units is not bringing it down. I really don't like all this testing I will be doing. I have never had to worry about low bs. How do these pumps work? Will they help me have less needle sticks? Do they administer insulin? I need to be educated and know you, my friends, will help. I feel good. Each day is different. Life is an adventure
God bless all of you. Thank you… read more
