What is Lantus and how does it treat diabetes?

Understanding Lantus and Its Role in Diabetes Management

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic condition characterized by elevated blood glucose levels. Managing this condition often requires insulin therapy to maintain blood sugar within healthy ranges. Lantus is a widely prescribed long-acting insulin that helps achieve this goal by mimicking natural insulin release.

How Lantus Works in the Body

Lantus, known generically as insulin glargine, provides a steady level of insulin over 24 hours. It helps the body process glucose from food and prevents high blood sugar. Regular use of Lantus can reduce the risk of diabetes complications like nerve damage, kidney issues, and cardiovascular disease.

Qualified healthcare professionals including endocrinologists, primary care physicians, and diabetes specialists can evaluate patients and prescribe Lantus. They determine appropriate dosage and regimen based on individual needs and health status.
