Hi all.
I have been on Levimir for years. No problem. My doctor gave me samples of Toujeo saying "Take the same amount that you take of the Levimir". I ran this by the pharmacist who agreed. I have two pens of Levimir left. I can either try the Toujeo or pay for a months worth of Levimir instead of using the new Toujeo that my doctor gave me. I have read that this Toujeo is concentrated and that you can use less. If this is the case, why am I being told that I can use the same dosage that I use with Levimir. My doctor also told me he has two new samples of a brand new insulin (different than Toujeo) when he sees me. So how does this concentration thing work. I mean if my doctor and my pharmacist agree on the same dosage plan, why does it indicate that people who use Toujeo can use less because it's concentrated? I'm interested in hearing from anyone who is using Toujeo and did you have to use less or did you indeed you the same amount as either Levimir or Lantus. Thanks very much Melody
