Use the proper technique taught to you by your doctor. Inject deep under the skin, NOT into a vein or muscle.
Injection sites within an injection area (abdomen, thigh, or upper arm) must be rotated from one injection to the next.

Important safety information:

Insulin Glargine Vials may cause drowsiness, dizziness, blurred vision, or lightheadedness. These effects may be worse if you take it with alcohol or certain medicines. Use Insulin Glargine Vials with caution. Do not drive or perform other possibly unsafe tasks until you know how you react to it.
Do not drink alcohol without discussing it with your doctor. Drinking alcohol may increase your risk of developing high or low blood sugar.
Do not exceed the recommended dose, use Insulin Glargine Vials more often than prescribed, or change the type or dose of insulin you are taking without checking with your doctor.
Illness, especially with nausea and vomiting, emotional problems, stress, or changes in diet or activity level, may cause your insulin requirements to change. Even if you are not eating, you still require insulin. You and your doctor should establish a sick day plan to use in case of illness. When you are sick, test your blood/urine frequently and call your doctor as instructed.
If you will be traveling across time zones, consult your doctor concerning adjustments in your insulin schedule.
Proper diet, regular exercise, and regular testing of blood sugar are important for best results when using Insulin Glargine Vials. Follow your doctor"s instructions carefully. If your blood sugar level is often higher or lower than it should be and you are taking Insulin Glargine Vials according to directions, check with your doctor.
An insulin reaction resulting from low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia) may occur if you take too much insulin, skip a meal, or exercise too much. Low blood sugar may make you anxious, sweaty, weak, dizzy, drowsy, or faint. It may also make your heart beat faster; make your vision change; give you a headache, chills, or tremors; or make you more hungry. It is a good idea to carry a reliable source of glucose (eg, tablets or gel) to treat low blood sugar. If this is not available, you should eat or drink a quick source of sugar like table sugar, honey, candy, orange juice, or non-diet soda. This will raise your blood sugar level quickly. Tell your doctor right away if this happens. To prevent low blood sugar, eat meals at the same time each day and do not skip meals.
Developing a fever or infection, eating significantly more than usual, or missing your dose of insulin may cause high blood sugar (hyperglycemia). High blood sugar may make you feel confused, drowsy, or thirsty. It can also make you flush, breathe faster, or have a fruit-like breath odor. If these symptoms occur, tell your doctor right away. If not treated, loss of consciousness, coma, or death may occur.
Carry an ID card at all times that says you have diabetes.
Use Insulin Glargine Vials with caution in the ELDERLY; they may be more sensitive to its effects, especially low blood sugar.
Lab tests, including fasting blood glucose levels or glycosylated hemoglobin levels, may be performed while you use Insulin Glargine Vials. These tests may be used to monitor your condition or check for side effects. Be sure to keep all doctor and lab appointments.
Insulin Glargine Vials should be used with extreme caution in CHILDREN younger than 6 years old; safety and effectiveness in these children have not been confirmed.
PREGNANCY and BREAST-FEEDING: If you become pregnant, contact your doctor. You will need to discuss the benefits and risks of using Insulin Glargine Vials while you are pregnant. Insulin Glargine Vials is found in breast milk. If you are or will be breast-feeding while you use Insulin Glargine Vials, check with your doctor. Discuss any possible risks to your baby.
