I accidentally took Apidra instead of Toujeo. How long should I wait to take the Toujeo again?

Toujeo (insulin glargine) is a long acting man-made form of insulin that lowers levels of glucose (sugar) in the blood in patients with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Toujeo is usually injected once per day at the same time each day.
Apidra (Insulin glulisine) is a fast-acting insulin that lowers levels of glucose (sugar) in the blood in patients with either type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Apidra is best given 15 to 20 minutes before a meal.
You should give your doctor or diabetes specialist a call. Apidra is a mealtime insulin so you may need to eat first before using Toujeo.
