Lantus SoloStar Tips from Pharmacists

• Do not share your Lantus SoloStar pen with anyone else, even if the needle has been changed. This device is designed for use by a single patient. You could get a serious infection by sharing insulin equipment.

• Check your plasma glucose levels regularly as advised by your doctor. Keep a log of your blood glucose monitoring results and share them with your doctor. They may adjust your insulin dose based on the trends.

• Talk to your doctor about how to recognize low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) and what to do if it happens.
