Insulin glargine is used with an appropriate diet and exercise program to control high blood sugar in diabetics. Managing high blood sugar helps prevent kidney damage, blindness, nerve problems, loss of limbs, and sexual function problems. Proper control of diabetes may also reduce your risk of a heart attack or stroke. Insulin gelargin is a man-made product similar to human insulin. It replaces the insulin your body makes naturally. It works longer than normal insulin, and provides a low and stable level of insulin. It works by helping blood sugar (glucose) enter cells so your body can use it for energy. Glargine insulin can be used with a shorter acting insulin product. It can also be used alone or in combination with other diabetes medicationsPrescription required
