Have they changed any ingredients in Lantus as me and my friend are experiencing the same problem.
Levels dropping. looking gray ish?
 
Mine doesn't look grey at all, or do you mean you are looking grey-ish?
 
Or start a new cartridge to be on safe side?

I cannot find anything on the internet about a change in Lantus; there are other varieties of insulin glargine around:-

1: Lantus - the original glargine insulin (100 units per ml)

2: Toujeo - stronger strength glargine, 300 units per ml

3: Abasaglar - standard biosimilar insulin (U100) which looks like lantus and should behave like Lantus but is not garuanteed to behave exactly like Lantus (it is also a bit cheaper)

Are you on the same "lantus" as before?

Best wishes

Hi @Vk24, What are your levels dropping to ?
And has there been any different food, drink , medications etc that you and your friend may have been taking recently?
