How BASAGLAR KWIK PEN Works

Insulin glargine is a long-acting basal insulin analogue. After subcutaneous injection it forms microprecipitates that slowly release insulin, providing a near-constant insulin level for about 24 hours to reduce fasting and between-meal blood glucose.

Can be taken with or without food; dose is individualized by the doctor—do not change dose/brand without medical advice.

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