WHAT IS TOUJEO?
Toujeo (insulin glargine) is a synthetic version of a hormone generated naturally in the body. Insulin is a hormone that operates by reducing blood glucose levels (sugar). The Toujeo SoloStar injectable pen is intended to help persons with diabetes manage their blood sugar levels.
USES
Insulin glargine is used with a proper diet and exercise program to control high blood sugar in people with diabetes. Controlling high blood sugar helps prevent kidney damage, blindness, nerve problems, loss of limbs, and sexual function problems. Proper control of diabetes may also lessen your risk of a heart attack or stroke.
WARNINGS
Toujeo SoloStar contains three times the amount of insulin found in conventional insulin per milliliter (mL). If you have hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) or diabetic ketoacidosis, you should avoid using Toujeo (call your doctor for treatment).
TOUJEO SIDE EFFECTS
If you have redness or swelling where an injection was given, itchy skin rash all over your body, difficulties breathing, fast heartbeats, feeling like you could pass out, or swelling in your tongue or throat, seek emergency medical attention.
OVERDOSE
If someone has overdosed and has serious symptoms such as passing out or trouble breathing, call 911. Otherwise, call a poison control center right away.
MISSED DOSE
It is very important to follow your insulin regimen exactly. Ask your doctor ahead of time what you should do if you miss a dose of insulin.
