Hi I use Glargine abasaglar, I’m on a low doseage and find I don’t finish the whole thing off before it’s expired. Does anyone else experience the product becoming less potent towards the end of the 30 day product life?

Not being able to eat as many chocolate digestives as I used to.

I used to get through a pen in about 2 weeks so it wasn't an issue for me personally bu I'm sure that I've seen other people comment that is sometimes starts to fade after around 21 days.
