In this old-style western, we discuss in detail the differences between Lantus and Toujeo. Although these two products contain the same type of insulin molecule, there are important differences between them. We set these two gunslingers side by side and discuss the strengths and disadvantages each one has and set them up to compete with each other in an old-style brawl. We review the history of the two products, differences in concentration, mode of application, and what is expected when using these two types of insulin glargine.

Lantus, a brand name for insulin glargine, is a prescription medication used to treat type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Lantus, a long-acting form of insulin, works by replacing the insulin that is normally produced by the body and by helping the body use sugar for energy. It also stops the liver from producing more sugar.
This medication comes in injectable form to be given under the skin. Never inject it into a vein or muscle.
Common side effects of Lantus include low blood sugar, redness and skin thickening at the injection site, and weight gain.
