Important Safety Information
Prescription Lantus® is for adults with type 2 diabetes or adults and children ( 6 years and older)
with type 1 diabetes who require long-acting insulin for the control of high blood sugar.
OptiClik® is a reusable insulin delivery device (insulin Pen) for use with a 3-mL Lantus®cartridge (U- 100).
DO NOT DILUTE OR MIX LANTUS® WITH ANY OTHER INSULIN OR SOLUTION. It will not work as
intended, and you may lose blood sugar control, which could be serious. Do not change your
insulin without talking with your doctor. The syringe must not contain any other medication or
residue. You should not use Lantus® if you are allergic to insulin. Lantus® is a long-acting insulin
you inject just once a day, at the same time each day.
As with any insulin therapy, possible side effects may include blood sugar levels that are too low
(hypoglycemia); injection site reactions, including changes in fat tissue at the injection site; itching
and rash; and allergic reactions. Rare but serious side effects may occur. Tell your doctor about all
other medicines and supplements you are taking because they can change the way insulin works.
See additional important information on the next page.
Lydia takes pride in her dance
moves. She also takes Lantus®
as part of her diabetes therapy.
Lantus® is the only once-daily, 24-hour insulin with
no pronounced peak. And it
works steadily all day and all
night, so Lydia’s always free
to take her tutu for a spin.
