Lantus Solostar (insulin glargine) for Diabetes, Type 2: I have been on Lantus for a few years now. I love it, the ease in administration of the Solostar and of the cartridge pen is wonderful. I have never had a problem with it and when using it my sugars remain in good control and I feel wonderful.

Lantus Solostar (insulin glargine) for Diabetes, Type 2: This medicine seemed to work well for a short period of time for a friend as well as myself. Now I find that if I increase my dosage drastically or decrease my dosage drastically (over 20 units) it will help get my blood sugar where I need them, according to my doctor.

Lantus (insulin glargine) for Diabetes, Type 2: The drug is very effective. The only problems I have had are low blood sugar levels while working in hot environments. In Saudi in the spring and summer months I would constantly go low while working in the heat.

insulin glargine for Diabetes, Type 2: The insulin pen with glargine works great. It is so easy to use and convenient. I have high blood pressure as well and it works great with the lisinopril that I take for it. No side effects that I have detected.
