BASAGLAR CARTRIDGES — Uses, Dosage & Benefits

Insulin glargine 100 IU/mL (3 mL cartridge contains 300 IU)

Insulin glargine is a long-acting basal insulin analogue. After subcutaneous injection it forms microprecipitates that release insulin slowly and steadily over ~24 hours, lowering blood glucose by increasing peripheral glucose uptake and reducing hepatic glucose production.

For subcutaneous injection only using a compatible insulin pen for cartridges. Inject once daily at the same time each day into abdomen, thigh, or upper arm; rotate injection sites. Do not dilute or mix with other insulins in the same syringe. Dose is individualised based on blood glucose; follow physician advice. Not for IV use or insulin pump.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
