Lantus contains insulin glargine. This is a
modified insulin, very similar to human
insulin.
Lantus is used to treat diabetes mellitus in
adults, adolescents and children aged 2 years

where your body does not produce enough
insulin to control the level of blood sugar.
Insulin glargine has a long and steady blood-
sugar-lowering action.

USE LANTUS
DO NOT USE LANTUS
If you are allergic to insulin glargine or any
of the other ingredients of this medicine
(listed in section 6).
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Lantus in cartridges is only suitable for
injecting just under the skin using a reusable
pen (see also section 3). Speak to your doctor
if you need to inject your insulin by another
method.
Talk to your doctor, pharmacist or nurse
