Long-acting insulins aren’t tied to mealtimes. You’ll take detemir (Levemir)once or twice a day no matter when you eat. And you’ll take glargine (Basaglar, Lantus, Toujeo)once a day, always at the same time. Deglutec is taken once a day, and the time of day can be flexible...

[NPH], lispro, glulisine, glargine, detemir, degludec, and aspart), delivery devices (vials/syringes or pens), therapeutic class (short-acting, rapid-acting, long-acting, intermediate-acting, and premixed insulin), insulin type (human, analog, and biosimilar), and date of approval (newer: ...
Exposure Initiation of basal insulin analogs (glargine or detemir) vs NPH insulin. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was the time to a hypoglycemia-related ED visit or hospital admission and the secondary outcome was the change in hemoglobin A1c level within 1 year of insulin initiati...
Glargine Similar to detemir,glargine insulinhas a long duration (∼24 hours) of action without a defined peak. With its increased use outside of pregnancy, it is more common to see pregnant or persons planning pregnancy taking glargine for basal coverage. Asystematic reviewand meta-analysis tha...
If converting from insulin glargine to LEVEMIR, the change can be done on a unit-to-unit basis. If converting from NPH insulin, the change can be done on a unit-to-unit basis. However, some patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus may require more LEVEMIR than NPH insulin, as observed in...
Exogenous insulins, including the newer biosynthetic insulins (i.e. aspart, detemir, glargine, glulisine, lispro) appear to be excreted into breast milk. Insulin is a protein that is inactivated if taken by mouth. If absorbed, it would be destroyed in the digestive tract of the infant. ...
