[QUOTE="TorqPenderloin, post: 1436364, member: 211504"] Until someone can prove otherwise, I'm convinced that Toujeo is just a more concentrated form of Lantus. The USA patent for Lantus expired a couple years back which opened the drug up to competitors. Lantus is/was one of Sanofi's most profitable drugs so they had to do something in order to maintain the revenue they had been generating. The result was Toujeo which is on TV commercials all the time here in the states. It's for similar reasons why you're probably not hearing much about Toujeo in the UK as the NHS operates completely different from the health insurance market in the USA. Tresiba from Novo Nordisk is vastly superior to other basal insulins on the market, or at least that's the general consensus. I personally switched from Levemir at the end of last year and the absorption rate is phenomenal. If you search around on this site and others you'll find that there is a huge following of Tresiba advocates with only a handful of people who were not satisfied. In general, I hear more people praise the effectiveness of Tresiba more than any other insulin type. [/QUOTE]
