Description
Generic Version of Insulin glargine in India?
Insulin glargine is the generic name of the medication and is its international nonproprietary name. Insulin glargine is marketed under the brand name Lantus among others.
Insulin glargine is a long-acting modified form of medical insulin, used in the management of type 1 and type 2 diabetes. It is injected just under the skin.
Common side effects include low blood sugar, problems at the site of injection, itchiness, and weight gain. Other serious side effects include low blood potassium. NPH insulin rather than insulin glargine is generally preferred in pregnancy.[8] After injection, microcrystals slowly release insulin for about 24 hours. This insulin causes body tissues to absorb glucose from the blood and decreases glucose production by the liver.
Insulin glargine was patented, but the patent expired in most jurisdictions in 2014. It was approved for medical use in the United States in 2000.
