After being diagnosed with Diabetes, I tried a couple different brands of insulin. Finally, my doctor gave me the Lantus pens. Easy to use and I had great control of my blood sugars. I am even having more success controlling my weight. If it keeps up, I may be able to eventually stop using insulin completely.

I thought I would never get my Type 2 Diabetes under control. My blood sugar level in the morning was always too high. I resisted insulin, but my doctor talked me into it. I was amazed at how easy the pen was to use. (If you try this, be sure to get the pen instead of the bottle as it is easier and the needle is very short compared to having to use a syringe.)

I now take 60 units at bedtime and my blood sugar level is usually between 100-120 in the morning. This is fantastic compared to the readings I got without lantus.

Luckily I never experienced any side effects. This may be due to taking it at bedtime.

Lantus has become a very effective part of my Type 2 Diabetes treatment. I had always thought that taking insulin required numerous daily injections, but Lantus only requires one injection daily at bedtime. My blood sugar levels are under much better control now.
