Basalog One Pre Filled Pen Injection contains Insulin glargine 100 IU/mL (3 mL prefilled pen). It belongs to the Long-acting insulin analogue (basal insulin) class of medicines.
Diabetes mellitus (Type 1 and Type 2) for basal (long-acting) glycaemic control; used alone or with other antidiabetic medicines/insulin
Insulin glargine is a long-acting insulin analogue. After subcutaneous injection it forms microprecipitates that slowly release insulin, providing a steady basal insulin level to lower blood glucose throughout the day and night.
For subcutaneous use only. Inject once daily at the same time each day as advised by the doctor into abdomen, thigh or upper arm; rotate injection sites. Can be taken with or without food. Do not mix or dilute with other insulins; do not use intravenously or in an insulin pump. Prime the pen before each injection and use a new needle each time.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Contact your doctor or diabetes nurse for advice — do not take a double dose to make up for a missed injection.
An overdose of this medicine can cause severe low blood sugar, leading to fits or unconsciousness — this is a medical emergency. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
Most side effects of Basalog One Pre Filled Pen are mild and settle as the body adjusts. Reported side effects include:
Stop the medicine and seek help immediately for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Risk of hypoglycaemia—monitor blood glucose and carry fast-acting sugar. Do not use for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Dose adjustment may be needed with changes in diet, activity, illness, renal/hepatic impairment, or when switching insulins. Avoid injecting into areas of lipodystrophy; rotate sites. Seek urgent care for severe allergy, repeated hypoglycaemia, confusion, or loss of consciousness.
Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not to be used during an episode of low blood sugar.
Other antidiabetics (sulfonylureas, meglitinides) increase hypoglycaemia risk, beta-blockers may mask hypoglycaemia symptoms, corticosteroids/thyroid hormones/diuretics/sympathomimetics may raise glucose and reduce insulin effect, ACE inhibitors and salicylates may enhance glucose-lowering, alcohol can increase risk of hypoglycaemia, pioglitazone with insulin may increase risk of fluid retention/heart failure
Unopened pens: store in a refrigerator at 2–8°C; do not freeze; keep away from freezer compartment and protect from light. In-use pen: keep at room temperature (generally below 25–30°C as per pack instructions) away from heat and light; discard after the in-use period stated on the label (commonly 28 days). Do not store with needle attached.
