[QUOTE="Dixon1995, post: 1886536, member: 487884"] I knew Levemir was a Detemir and Abasaglar was Glargine, it made me laugh when my GP said its the same thing. I did query it but she was very evasive about the whole thing, and her excuse was that Levemir is the most costly and that there is an increased demand for it. To be honest with you, I am happy on the Glargine as I have been on it before I know how to control it, but god imagine someone who started on Levemir to be told its the same as Abasaglar, it could lead to serious issues as you said with hypos! I agree my GP is pathetic, but they all have the same attitude in my local, she also moved me from the care of GP surgery to the care of the Diabetic centre on hospital, so at least I will be seeing a Endo Doctor I have since sent a suggestion into that surgery to be looked at [/QUOTE]
