I have troubles with syringes. So the pens work perfectly for me. I see where your coming from though.My consultant offered to change me from Humalin I to Toujeo last month. I was interested, until I asked about pens and was told it only came in disposable pens. At that point, I declined,on environmental grounds.
I have been using toujeo since December, I felt it worked better than Lantus. Unfortunately I am presently suffering hypos after taking it. Not too sure why but has been like this for 2 weeks, sites seem fine and all previous months were fine. Just all of a sudden
Worth mentioning this to your DSN, you shouldn't go hypo after taking a basal insulin.
Could it have an issue like some reported with the Lantus? Although I have not seen an outcry much like the one stickied here
I have recently been switched onto this insulin mainly because I found that by Carb/dosage levels needed to be increased in the afternoon due to my Lantus basically running out of steam. So far I have found that it definitely lasts far longer and that I also inject pretty much the same dosage as before, so as far as I'm concerned it's a win win result.
I have major hypos if I miss it for a day which makes no sense whatsoever!
