Well, have a search on this forum to find what people who have actually used it think. I did that when I started taking it. There is a division of opinion about it. A number of us apparently find that it does a lovely job of keeping BS level. The rest, like me, find it a nightmare. I suspect that the truth is that it can keep BS level, but only if you are taking the number of units which for you is correct, while also eating the correct amount of carbs to match your fast-acting at every meal.You do know that Toujeo is three times the strength of standard Lantus, don't you ? I spent 6 weeks sending my DSN increasingly desperate messages about my uncontrollable and ridiculously unstable BS when I took it. She kept telling me to up the number of units I was taking. When I did, my waking levels rose from 11mml at first to 16 or 17 mml with one unit more. At this point, i got frightened and demanded a change to something else.</blockquote>
