For Type 2 Diabetes "I have been on Toujeo for almost a year. I have chronic health conditions and then got type 2 diabetes. The longer you have it, the harder it is to control. I have noticed new things that haven't gone away. One eye is blurry, sometimes both of them. I have convulsions in my body that drive me crazy. It's not fun to have your body jumping around. I have also been having cold sweats, dizziness, and headache. I am going to go back to Lantus. It took me a while to realize these symptoms were not normal for my other illnesses. But I am sure now."

For Type 2 Diabetes "I started this medicine a year ago. I take 15 units before bed plus 2 Metformin pills a day. At first, I was getting fantastic results. Waking blood sugar every morning was under 100 and no side effects. Now, a year later, I have an itchy, scaly rash on my right side that will not go away, waking blood sugars are all over the place, ranging from the 180's to the 280's, blurry vision, and tiredness. I've had no changes in diet or exercise, and I'm not overweight. It's as if the drug just stopped working altogether. I am requesting my doctor take me off this and try something else."

For Type 2 Diabetes "Toujeo. 19 units at night. Two weeks off Lantus SoloStar. Blood sugars waking were 140, now 200. Nausea 15 minutes after injection. Lasts for two hours. Severe cramping and pain in feet, calves, shoulders, and hands. Diarrhea on and off throughout the two weeks. Dizziness. Blurry vision in one eye. Swollen gums. Hope this levels off quickly."

For Type 2 Diabetes "Have been on Toujeo for over 2 years, taking 80 units at bedtime. Like the other reviewer, djricci, the Toujeo has caused a rash to break out all over my body, especially on the lower legs and scalp. The overall constant itching is driving me nuts. Results have been so-so, I am lucky if sugar is below 200 in the AM. Have also experienced some of the side effects others have noted (blurry vision, weight gain, dizziness)."
